Armed robbery, Nundah
A 33-year-old man and a 32-year-old woman have each been charged with armed robbery in company following police investigations into an incident at Nundah early this morning (October 4, 2016).
A 25-year-old Boondall man attended a Sandgate Road unit around 1.20am. A man and woman were at the residence.
It will be alleged the man was threatened by a man armed with a baseball bat and had money and a mobile phone stolen from him.
