‘He’s traumatised’: Terrifying servo robbery
A fully black-clad and disguised armed robber has made off with the cash drawer in a calculated early morning armed robbery in Sydney’s west.
The knife-wielding person robbed a service station in the suburb of Guildford about 4am on Sunday.
Footage shows the criminal getting out of the passenger side of a black sedan on the forecourt of the store, and calmly walking inside before pointing the knife at the worker.
The worker runs out and away from the counter, fleeing the shop past the waiting getaway car.
The armed robber hops the counter, rips out the cash drawer and races from the scene in the black sedan.
The robbery is over in less than one minute.
The robber is wearing all black, including a hoodie pulled up and a balaclava.
Police have not made any arrests, a spokesperson said.
Service station owner Reema Khurana expressed frustration at brazen acts which her business was the target of, and said the staff member was traumatised.
“Our staff is our family, (and) if this happens to our family we tend to get angry,” Ms Khurana told Channel 9.
Channel 9 reports the getaway car had fake licence plates.
