Police are appealing for public assistance following the armed robbery of a convenience store in Sydney’s south-west last night.

 Shortly after 8pm (Thursday 3 November 2011), three men entered the store on Rochester Street, Homebush, and threatened the 37-year-old male attendant with hammers.

 The men, who had their faces concealed, stole cash and property before approaching a 25-year-old customer and stealing his wallet.

 The men then fled the store and were last seen walking along Abbotsford Road.

 Police were notified and officers attached to Flemington Local Area Command attended, established a crime scene and canvassed the area.

 Detectives are now appealing for anyone who witnessed the incident, or has any information, to come forward.

 Two of the men are described as being approximately 168cm tall and of medium build.

 The third man is described as being about 180cm tall, of medium build, and aged in his mid-20s.

 All three were wearing dark clothing.
