Attempted armed robbery - Chermside

Police are investigating the attempted robbery of a convenience store at Chermside last night.

Just before 9pm, a man armed with a knife entered the Gympie Road business and threatened the male employee.

The man jumped the counter before the staff member was able to lock himself in a back room.

The man has attempted to open the till without success and has left the store empty handed.

He is described as having a medium build, olive complexion, approximately 180cm tall, wearing a white cloth covering his head, a black long sleeve shirt with aqua horizontal stripes, long dark trousers and black joggers.

No one was injured during the incident.

Investigators are appealing for anyone with further information and for two customers who were in the store shortly before the incident, to contact police.

A video of the incident is available by clicking here.

Appeal: Puppy Stolen from Mitchelton

Police are appealing for urgent public assistance in order to reunite a newborn puppy with its mother after it was stolen during a break-in at Mitchelton on Sunday.

On March 3, unknown people entered a residence on Osbourne Road overnight and stole various household items as well as a male and female Maltese-Shitzu cross puppy (pictured below).

An investigation immediately commenced with police and the owners holding serious concerns for the welfare of the puppies which were only three weeks old.

One of the pups was recognised by a member of the public on Tuesday night with a person at a fish and chip shop in Virginia and reported it to police yesterday after the story was publicised.

Officers executed a search warrant at an address in Stafford where they located the male puppy (pictured left). The occupants were completely unaware the puppy had been stolen and were allegedly told by a man known to them it was 8 weeks old before he gave it to them.


 

The recovered puppy was reunited with its owners and immediately taken to the vet to be checked over.

Police still hold serious concerns for the remaining female puppy and its survival after being away from its mother for a number of days.

It is possible the pup has been given or sold to someone unaware of its origin or young age.

The Ferny Grove Property Crime Team is urging anyone with further information as to the whereabouts of the puppy to immediately contact police.

Original Post - 24 Jan 19

Brisbane police are appealing for public assistance after a teenage girl was dragged into bushes and assaulted at Chermside West on Wednesday afternoon (23 Jan 19).

The 16-year-old was walking on the footpath in Kittabilla Street, near the intersection with Craigslea Street, at around 12.15pm when a man walked up beside her.

The man placed his hand over the girl’s mouth and pulled her into nearby bushes. The girl struggled, kicking the man and managing to break free from his grasp and run off.

The man was last seen running in Buran Street, Chermside West.

He is described as Caucasian, aged possibly in his late 20s to early 30s, approximately 185cms tall with a proportionate build and stubble on his face.

The man was wearing a black baseball cap, black framed sunglasses with orange reflector lenses, a white t-shirt and black baseball short.
