Has this weak, perverted wanker been caught yet?.
My child goes to the same school that the 13yr old girl attends, they had an assembly warning the kids about this bastard.
Poor Pizza dude, I cannot believe these pieces of scum robbed and assaulted this poor fella for, well wouldn’t be anymore than $20-$50 bucks.
What the hell is happening to Canberra it’s just all death and destruction, I hope karma gets these f@*kers bad.
@#13 Hugh, I’m sure you must know someone who has a child in their mid teens. Would you like this guy hanging aroung them? And remember, Crimestoppers can be annonymous….
