Update: Armed robbery, East Brisbane
Police investigating the armed robbery of a bottle shop that occurred in East Brisbane on April 20 have released cctv footage and images of a man who could assist with their enquiries.
Around 11pm, a man who a short time earlier had been in the store, re-entered the Wellington Road business and approached the counter, lifting his hooded jumper to reveal a firearm to the store attendant.
The man made demands for cash, and the attendant complied.
