A female employee at Kedron Park Hotel was allegedly threatened with a knife during an armed robbery on Friday morning, with police charging two men following separate arrests later that day.
Queensland Police allege two men forced their way into the Lutwyche Road establishment shortly before 7.30am on 10 January, where they stole cash and the worker’s wallet before escaping on a blue road motorcycle.
Police conducted a search warrant at a Beams Road property in Boondall around 6.40pm, resulting in the arrest of a 36-year-old man. A second arrest occurred just after 10pm at a Summerstone Boulevard address in Morayfield, where a 43-year-old man was taken into custody.
The 36-year-old Boondall man faces multiple charges, including armed robbery, deprivation of liberty, and entering premises with intent to commit an indictable offence. The 43-year-old Sandstone Point man has been charged with identical offences.
Both men are scheduled to appear before Brisbane Magistrates Court on Saturday, 11 January.
Detectives from Hendra Criminal Investigations Branch are seeking assistance from the public and have requested any dashcam or CCTV footage from Lutwyche Road and Kedron Park Road captured between 6.50am and 8.20am on Friday.
Anyone with relevant footage or information is encouraged to contact Queensland Police.
