South West Detectives have charged a man in relation to an armed robbery incident in Withers on Tuesday 6 November 2012.

About 8:50pm three men arrived at the Chicken Treat store located at the Minninup Forum Shopping Centre in Withers. All three men were wearing balaclavas. Two of the men, who

were armed with knives, entered the store while the third remained at the entrance door.

The two men threatened two staff members and demanded they open the cash tills. The staff complied with the request and three men left with an amount of cash.

As part of the ongoing investigation South West Detectives travelled to Harvey and arrested a local 18 year old man, who has since been charged with Aggravated Armed Robbery. He

will appear in the Bunbury Magistrates Court today, Wednesday 14 November 2012.
