A man will appear in court tomorrow charged with the armed robbery of a post office on the state’s Central Coast.

About 3.50pm on Tuesday 4 December 2012, two men allegedly entered the Long Jetty post office armed with a knife and spanner, demanding cash.

Staff members and male customer fought back, and the two men left empty handed.

They left the scene in a car that was briefly pursued by police, before the pursuit was terminated.

Officers from Tuggerah Lakes Local Area Command commenced investigations into the incident and today arrested a 34-year-old man.

He was charged with robbery armed with an offensive weapon and will appear before Wyong Local Court tomorrow (Wednesday 16 January 2013).

Meanwhile, investigators are still searching for a second man who may be able to assist with their inquiries.

He is described as being of Caucasian appearance with a tanned complexion, 30-35 years of age, about 183cm tall and with a medium build.
