ACT Policing is calling for witnesses to a robbery of a 13-year-old boy in Gilmore yesterday (Thursday 9 August).
About 3.30pm the boy got off a bus in Gilmore, walked through Litchfield Place towards Isabella Drive.
As he got close to the roundabout on Isabella Drive and Hambidge Crescent, he was approached by a man on an orange mountain bike.
The man is described as Caucasian in appearance, around 18 years old and approximately 183cm tall, with a skinny build and acne on his face. He was wearing a white hoody with the hood over his head and long pants.
The man kept his right hand in his pocket and demanded the boy hand over a wallet and phone while threatening to “stab him”.
Although the boy did not see a knife and did not have a wallet, he complied by handing over his phone, after which the man left in an unknown direction.
No injuries were sustained during the robbery.
