ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to an aggravated robbery at the Hot Lantern Chinese Restaurant in Jamieson last night (Sunday, March 3).
Around 8.35pm, a man armed with a knife and wearing a full faced light coloured motorbike helmet entered the restaurant threatening three employees before stealing a handbag containing a small sum of cash and personal cards.
On leaving the offender walked to the counter area, opened the cash register and took an undetermined amount of money.
The man is described as 170cm (5’7”) solid build and was wearing a black long sleeve top and black pants. He was last seen riding his green two stroke motorcycle towards Bowman Street.
Prior to the aggravated robbery the offender may have parked his trail bike on the footpath outside Ricardo’s Café, Jamieson Centre.
No one was injured during the aggravated robbery.
