ACT Policing is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying two people linked to a stolen motor vehicle used in an aggravated robbery in Kambah on 25 June.

Around 9pm on Thursday 25 June, two men armed with firearms entered Woolworths on Marconi Crescent, Kambah. The men approached staff members making demands for cash.

The staff members complied and the two men fled the store running to a small white car being driven by a third man.  

At the time of the incident, both offenders were wearing orange and black high visibility ‘hoodie’ jumpers, dark coloured pants and dark coloured face coverings.

Around 9:30pm, officers responded to a report of a vehicle fire in a small reserve located at the intersection Lambrigg Street and Hawkesbury Crescent Farrer. Further investigations have identified the car as the one used during the robbery.

Whilst the vehicle was significantly damaged during the fire, police have identified it as a white Subaru Impreza hatch with distinctive black wheels which was stolen from the driveway of a home in Monash a week earlier, between 18 and 19 June.
