A WOULD-be robber got more than he bargained for when police caught him holding-up a Noble Park petrol station at knifepoint on Monday morning.
Police believed the man entered the Heatherton Road premises around 1.40am and demanded cash.

He faced the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court charged with attempted armed robbery later the same day.
