*************************Police are hunting two armed robbers after a string of hold-ups in Sydney's inner west.
The men stole cash and goods at gunpoint in a 40-minute crime spree, raiding a betting agency, a bottle shop and a pub.
Just after 7.30pm yesterday, they entered a betting agency on Booth Street in Annandale, threatened a staff member and a customer and stole cash before fleeing on a motorcycle.
About half an hour later, the robbers confronted an 18-year-old man at a bottle shop on Kingston Road in Camperdown and ordered him to empty the contents of the cash register into a bag.
They sped away on the motorbike towards St Peters, where they entered a hotel on the Princes Highway 10 minutes later, threatened staff at gunpoint and stole cash, liquor and cigarettes.
They were last seen heading south on the Princes Highway on the bike.
One of the men is described as 180 centimetres tall with a slim build, and wearing dark-coloured clothing, gloves, a balaclava and a black motorcycle helmet with multi-coloured markings.
The other man also has a slim build and was wearing a black shirt, white jacket, gloves, a balaclava and a plain black motorcycle helmet.
Both men were carrying firearms.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Two criminals can threaten three different locations with firearms within 40 minutes.
Question - Where were the Police? I'm not bagging the Police but the pistol on the hips of on duty Police Officers didn't stop these robberies.
Why do the authorities (politicians) insist on ensuring that victims are victims?
