Bandits abduct servo operator

AN ENDEAVOUR Hills service station attendant was robbed and abducted at knife point by three men recently.
The robbery took place at the United Service Station on Heatherton Road about 10.10pm on Wednesday, 20 December.

Police said the victim was then driven a short distance before being released by his attackers.
He then walked to the Endeavour Hills police station to report the incident.
Police said the victim suffered bruising in the attack.
Anyone with any information about the crime is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
