ACT Policing has released facefits of two offenders and still images from CCTV footage of the aggravated robbery which occurred at the Red Hill Pharmacy on Friday, May 15. AFP

Police received notice of the incident, around 1.13pm on May 15, via an activated alarm at the Duyfken Place shop. On attending police were told two men had entered the premises and held up the store with an umbrella and what appeared to be either scissors or a syringe.

One of the offenders restrained a staff member while a sum of money and prescription drugs were stolen. The offenders then fled the pharmacy in a blue Suzuki Swift sedan and headed toward Griffith.

Both offenders are described as Caucasian, aged between 30-40 years, between 5’7” to 5’11” (170 to 180cms) tall, with thin builds, and unshaven faces. They were both wearing grey jackets – one hooded – and sunglasses. One offender wore a black hat while the other was wearing a blue and white baseball cap.

Police are urging anyone who may have seen persons matching these images or may have seen any suspicious activity in the area of the offence to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via the Crime Stoppers website on www.act.crimestoppers.com.au
