Last week in Port Melbourne, a man caused quite a stir when he attempted to rob a Bay Street hotel while wearing a rather unusual disguise - a pair of underwear as a mask. According to police, the incident took place around 2:15am on Wednesday when the man entered the hotel and approached a staff member.
Apparently, the man threatened the staff member with a firearm and demanded cash. However, much to his dismay, the staff member was unable to access any money and the man had to flee the scene empty-handed. Luckily, no one was physically harmed during the incident.
Described as wearing a dark material draped around him like a cape, along with a pair of dark-coloured underpants on his head, the suspect also sported a black t-shirt, light-coloured pants, and white runners. CCTV footage captured the man running away from the hotel before hilariously tripping on his cape and falling to the ground.
As the investigation continues, police are now seeking the public's help in identifying the man. They are urging anyone who may have seen him in the area before or after the attempted robbery to come forward with any information. It goes without saying that the suspect is considered dangerous and should not be approached, but any leads or tips could greatly assist in bringing him to justice.
