Female service station staff member threatened with knife during Queensland robbery
A female staff member at a service station in Ipswich, in south-east Queensland, has been threatened with a knife during a frightening armed robbery.
Police have released vision of the robbery, where a man can be seen approaching the counter and lowering what appears to be a knife out of the bottom of one of his sleeves.
Following his demands for money, the woman removes the till and empties its contents into a plastic bag.
In the footage it appears the man takes something out of the till and adds it into the bag as well.
