Pre-dawn highway robbery

23/11/2015

A MAN has been attacked and had his cash stolen just after leaving a Narre Warren nightclub in the early hours of the morning.
The man had left the Empire Nightclub on the Princes Highway about 3.10am on Sunday 22 November and was walking to the nearby McDonald’s when he was approached by three other men, also believed to have just left the club.
The group, all described as Islander in appearance, demanded the victim’s wallet and mobile phone and then one of them hit him in the leg with a stick.
The victim handed over money and the attackers fled.
Anyone with any information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.
