[h=1]Armed bandit slips on banana peel as he flees convenience store hold-up[/h]
A THIEF almost came unstuck as he fled the scene of an armed robbery last night, slipping on a banana peel as he ran from a Marsden convenience store.
The man and an accomplice stormed into the convenience store in Brisbane's South around 10pm, threatening the two attendants with a knife and a hammer. They stole cigarettes.
The store attendants managed to escape and locked themselves out of the main store area with the masked thieves stealing cigarettes before running away.
But as the men escaped, the man carrying the knife slipped on a banana peel.
The men were last seen along Chambers Flat Road.
