Police investigate armed robbery at Ourimbah

An investigation is underway after an armed robbery on the Central Coast on Monday morning.

Police said a 61-year-old man was waiting in his Nissan Pulsar at the Ourimbah Interchange when a white utility - with a trail bike in the tray - stopped in front of his car about 3.20am.

The utility driver got out and approached the man's vehicle before threatening him with a weapon, demanding his wallet.

The armed man pointed the weapon towards a witness in a nearby vehicle before fleeing with the man's wallet, towards the Pacific Highway at Ourimbah, according to police.

Officers attached to Tuggerah Lakes Police District attended and commenced an investigation.

As inquiries continue, police are urging anyone who may have dashcam footage from the nearby area between 3am and 3.30am to contact Wyong police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
