ACT Policing is seeking witnesses after an aggravated robbery at the Latham Handy Mart yesterday afternoon (Monday, 20 April).
Around 4:15pm yesterday, a man armed with a pair of shears entered the store on Wanliss Street, Latham, and approached the employee making threats and demanding cash.
The employee complied with the demands and the man fled the store. No one was injured during this incident.
The offender is described as a Caucasian man, with an average build and curly blond hair.
