Second raid on service station

12/03/2015

THE United Service Station in Hampton Park was held up for the second time in a month over the weekend.
About 6.12am on Sunday 8 March a man has entered the service station on Hallam Road after which he approached the drinks cabinet and put on a balaclava.
He then produced two large knifes from his bag and made threats to the attendant.
The attendant handed over cash before the man fled on foot.
He was described as possibly an Islander, about 175 centimetres tall with a stocky build.
