North Shore Detectives are investigating the second aggravated robbery of a local sports bar in the last five days.

On Tuesday night 21 February 2012 the manager of Pats Garage Sports Bar was robbed at closing time by a lone gunman.

On Saturday night 25 February 2012 the manager of the Champions Sports Bar in the Glenfield Mall carpark was robbed at closing time. The offender was again a lone gunman.

During the second aggravated robbery the gunman robbed the bar while several patrons were still present.

The gunman is described as follows:

Male
Six feet plus tall
Athletic build
Possibly blue eyes
Disguised with a cap over a hooded green/grey sweat shirt and a face scarf.

The gun was described as a cut down hunting style shot gun with a scope.

The gunman stole money from the cash register and bar safe and fled on foot down the ramp to a jeep parked near the Glenfield Library.

No one was hurt in the robbery but police fear that someone could be injured if this man is not caught soon.
