Armed robbery, Kingaroy

Detectives investigating the armed robbery of a service station at Kingaroy last night have released images of two people who may be able to assist with inquiries.
Just before 11pm, the pair walked into the Youngman Street business armed with garden tool and demanded money from the male attendant. The employee refused, and when they attempted to leave the premises the main glass door locked causing them to be stuck inside.
As a result, one of them took a fire extinguisher off the wall and smashed a freezer before the second used it to smash a glass door and large glass window.
The pair then crawled through a hole in the glass with a stolen charity tin before leaving in a black 2011 Ford Fiesta parked at the back of the service station, believed to have been stolen from a Murgon address.
The employee was uninjured during the incident.
Investigations indicate the same pair forced
