Armed robbery charges, Bundaberg

Bundaberg Police have charged a boy after a tourist was allegedly robbed at knifepoint in Bundaberg North last night.

It will be alleged a 26-year-old woman was walking along Perry Street around 11.15pm when she noticed two male teenagers following close behind her.

She crossed the road onto Station Street when one of the youths allegedly rode in front of her on a scooter, produced a knife and grabbed her wrist, demanding she hand over her mobile phone.

The woman refused and the boy allegedly grabbed the phone from her hand before fleeing the scene with the second boy.

The woman was not injured as a result of the incident.

Police have since charged a 16-year-old Bundaberg North boy with armed robbery.
