A KNIFE wielding 19-year-old has been arrested and charged over a robbery at a Melbourne pharmacy that saw a 51-year-old female staff member injured.
Victorian police alleged the teenager and an accomplice entered the store on Union Road, Ascot Vale, brandishing machetes at two pharmacy employees and a security guard.
The duo are reported to have bound the security guard's hands, while the female staff member's hand was injured during the incident, before the bandits made off with cash and prescription medicines.
