Armed robbers at large

Police remain on the hunt for two offenders involved in an armed robbery of a pokies venue in Police Road Mulgrave last year.

Armed Crime Squad detectives say two men armed with firearms held-up the venue just before 6.30pm on 2 March 2018.

They demanded and received some cash before being chased by patrons into a nearby car park.

A shot was allegedly fired into the roof. A person was assaulted and was taken to hospital with minor injuries, police say.

The robbers escaped in a get-away car driven by a third unknown offender.

Police arrested a 44-year-old Endeavour Hills man in Springvale on 6 September 2019.

He was charged with armed robbery and conduct endangering life.

The other two alleged offenders remain at large.

Any information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au
