A nice day coming up with early fog mostly clearing to a sunny afternoon and top of 24 degrees.
Victoria Police have asked for help identifying this man, wanted over an attempted armed robbery at a West Footscray post shop on April 3. Holding a knife and plastic bag, he came into the Sunshine Road store and demanded cash, then ran away when the attendant turned on the alarm.
