Police are searching for the perpetrators of a Tuggeranong crime spree last night after multiple people were allegedly robbed and assaulted.

A woman allegedly had a knife drawn on her outside the Calwell Tavern as a man demanded her bag, before fleeing with her possessions. Police believe this incident is related to a man allegedly robbing a woman of her bag before leaving her with minor injuries in the carpark of the Vikings Chisholm club.

Demands were also allegedly made against staff at Domino’s Kambah and Domino’s Erindale, and against a man in the Kambah Tavern carpark, but the man fled all three scenes emptyhanded.

Police are asking for information regarding these incidents or for dash-cam footage of a red or maroon coloured sedan with no rear bumper around the areas of Calwell, Chisholm, Erindale and Kambah between 9:00 pm and 11:30 pm on Saturday night.

Police believe the same group of people were responsible for all of these incidents.

Anyone who may have any information that could assist police should contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers ACT website.

Please quote reference 6464144. Information can be provided anonymously.
