Australian man robs store wearing bubble wrap mask

A Gold Coast man has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal his identity, covering his face in bubble wrap before he robbed a convenience store at knifepoint.

Police have released footage of the robber in the hope that someone may recognise him. The man, believed to be between 20 to 30 years of age, was wearing a black zip-up hooded jacket, board shorts and thongs when he robbed the Main Beach store.



He had eye and nose holes cut out of the makeshift bubble wrap mask, which was tied around his head.

Gold Coast Police Detective acting Inspector Mark White said the robbery was "opportunistic" and believe the robber stole his plastic wrapping from the back of a truck, which was parked about 100m down the road.
