Failed thief

A MAN left empty-handed after attempting to rob Kelly’s Motor Club Hotel in Cranbourne on the weekend.
Police said at 1.15pm on 23 October, a man walked to a cashier in the gaming area and demanded $50 and $100 notes. He handed the cashier a note that read “this is not a joke.”
But the cashier did not hand over any money.
A witness told police the man was seen in the area an hour earlier and appeared to be nervous.
Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or Senior Detective Mark Wiederhold of the Casey CIU at the Narre Warren Police Station on 9705 3111.
