ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to the aggravated robbery of a Service Station in Holt last night (Sunday, June 15).

About 8.30pm, a man entered the Caltex Service Station on Hardwick Crescent, Holt, and approached the counter and demanded cash from a member of staff. When the staff member did not initially comply, the man produced a silver tyre iron and a knife.

The staff member then complied with the man’s demands and opened the cash register. The man took a sum of cash from the cash register and then demanded cigarettes, which the staff member handed over. The offender then fled on foot.

The man was described as been Aboriginal/Torres Strait Islander in appearance and of a solid build. He was wearing a grey hooded jumper with black sleeves, a black cap pulled low over his face and blue jeans with converse sneakers.
