The pair entered the service station on Watkins Street just after 9.30 - one of them was armed with a metal pole.

Police says the employee complied and the pair ran off towards The Junction.
One of the men has been described as Caucasian in appearance and aged in his

He was wearing dark long pants with a dark jacket, a black beanie and had a
red cloth covering his face and was armed with a metal bar.
The second man has been described as Caucasian in appearance and aged in his
mid twenties with a medium build and about 175cm tall.
He was wearing grey long pants with a black hooded jumper and he had a black
