Attempted Robbery on North Shore

About 1.50p.m on 13 November the Milford Bar and Gaming Lounge was the subject of an attempted robbery.
A Male European in his late 20's to early 30's, of solid to fat build and above average height entered the bar wearing a red top, blue jeans, beanie and red bandanna around the lower part of his face. He was carrying a satchel. He demanded money from the safe and till, pushing the manageress behind the bar. No weapon was seen. He attempted to open the safe when a patron intervened causing the offender to run off. He was pursued to a waiting red four door vehicle near the ASB in the Milford mall car park. Police are seeking any sightings of the offender or vehicle.
Police and Bar management are grateful for any assistance and information provided by the public to date, and are pleased no one was injured during the incident. Information can be provided to North Shore CIB on 4775000 or 027 949 112.
