No one was injured when a man held up a lotto booth in San Ġwann earlier this afternoon.
The police said the incident took place at around 1435pm in Triq l-24 ta’ Ġunju.
The lotto booth was manned by a 56-year-old woman. A man brandishing a knife went inside and ordered the woman to hand over the cash. The man, whose face was not covered, then ran outside, where another person was waiting for him.
Magistrate Claire Stafrace Zammit is holding an inquiry.
