Police are appealing for assistance from the public after a masked male offender entered the Postman’s Leg bar in Glenfield and threatened staff with a firearm before fleeing with a sum of cash.
At approximately 9pm on Sunday 19 June, a man wearing a full-faced white mask, a distinctive heavy mustard coloured coat with a brown collar, dark pants and white shoes entered the bar.
A second offender waited in the carpark in a stolen Silver Mazda Atenza station wagon and the vehicle fled the scene when the first offender returned to the car.
The vehicle was stolen from Archers Road around 6.30pm on Sunday and was located just after 9pm in Chequers Ave, Glenfield.
Police would like to hear from anyone who has a seen a vehicle of this description behaving suspiciously in the Glenfield area on Sunday between 6.30pm and 9pm.
