ACT Policing is seeking witnesses following the armed robbery of the 7-Eleven service station in Spence early this morning (Friday May, 10).

Around 2.10am, a man armed with a knife approached the console operator of the 7-Eleven service station who was outside at the time.

The offender walked the operator into the service station where he ordered the victim to open the security door behind the counter.

The offender removed several packets of cigarettes before taking a small amount of cash. The offender then ran from the scene in an unknown direction.

The offender is described as late teens to early 20’s, approximately 5’9” to 5’11” tall (175cm to 180cm), slim build and green eyes.

He was wearing a blue hoodie, black track pants, black mask, white/grey runners and white gloves.
