34-year-old man has been charged following the alleged armed robbery of a service station in Bray Park last night.

Police will allege that around 11pm, a man entered a service station on Kensington Way armed with a gun and demanded money from the male shop attendant.

It is further alleged the man then fled the scene on foot with a sum of cash to a residence on Sovereign Avenue, where a stand-off has ensued after threats were made towards police.

Specialist police attended the scene and around 1.55am this morning the man voluntarily surrendered to police without further incident.

A 34-year-old Strathpine man has been charged with one count each of armed robbery and entering a premises with intent to commit an indictable offence.

The man was also charged with three counts of fraud and one count each of burglary, unlawful use of a motor vehicle and possessing tainted property. These charges were unrelated to the alleged armed robbery.

He is due to appear in the Pine Rivers Magistrates Court today.
