Police arrested three men in Perth after the customers at a fast food joint alerted the police of a possible armed robbery. The men however claim no offense and consider the charges baseless, as it was a prank played upon their work mates that turned ugly.
Wearing black vests and balaclavas and armed with replica pistols, the men pretended to hold up their fast food restaurant says the police. The customers were frightened as the drama unfolded and believing it to be an actual robbery alarmed the police about an armed robbery at the fast food joint.
The young men aged 19, 20 and 22 were charged for causing fear in a public place and possessing arms. The police refused to divulge the details of the fast food restaurant however.
