About 6.15am a 41-year-old woman was at Curtin shops when she was approached by two males, producing a knife and demanding her purse.
The woman has complied with the demand and the men left the area in a car, a white Kia Cerato, bearing NSW registration BS83RX.

The second offender is described as having dark skin, approximately 168cm (5’6”) tall, with a ‘chubby’ build, jeans and a light coloured ‘hoody’.
The car used in the aggravated robbery had been stolen earlier this morning from Florey.
