Regional Investigations Unit detectives are seeking information regarding several incidents last night in Ellenbrook, including two armed robberies and the burning of a stolen vehicle.

At around 10.45pm a man approached several houses in Fewson Turn in Ellenbrook, banging on doors and demanding keys to cars. At one house he produced a rifle – with the occupant of the house

throwing the keys to their car out a window to the man. The offender then stole the victim’s Hyundai i30 vehicle. Just after 11pm, the stolen Hyundai was found burnt out on Charlotte’s Vista and Westbrook Parade in Ellenbrook.

Despite a search for the man by police, he was unable to be located. Police are also inquiring into whether the same man was involved in an armed robbery at the Woolworths service station at Main Street and The Promenade in Ellenbrook at around 10.55pm, where the offender, pictured below, threatened the attendant with a firearm.
