Gosnells robbers threatened victims with machete

as posted here



Three teenagers armed with a machete went on a crime spree in Perth's southern suburbs yesterday, attacking two people and attempting to rob two young girls.

Police allege the juveniles stopped a man riding a bike about 8am in Gosnells and demanded he hand over his mobile phone. The man was threatened with a machete.

A short while later police allege the trio struck again, this time in Maddington where they held up a man for his ipod. He was also threatened with the machete.

A few hours later the teenagers allegedly stopped two young girls in Cannington and demanded they hand over their mobile phones and money.

Police say the girls refused their demands, yelling at the boys. A scuffle broke out and one of the girls sustained a laceration to her hip and stomach. The other girl called police and the teenagers fled.

Police tracked the youths to Queens Park and they were arrested and charged. They are expected to face court later this month.
