Armed raid on Red Rooster

A HAMPTON Park fast food outlet was held up last week.
A 16-year-old youth was serving at the local Red Rooster last Thursday night when a man came in armed with a knife and demanded cash.
Police said the man came to the front of the store at 9.50pm, handed the victim a plastic bag and demanded he fill it with money.
He threatened the boy with the knife then ran off down Somerville Road.
The man was wearing a balaclava and grey jacket with the hood up.
The armed robbery was the second incident at a local Red Rooster store in two weeks.
