'Apologetic' thief admits to armed hold-up for €20 he promised to return

A man who apologised to a
pastizzeria attendant after holding her at knifepoint and demanding €20 in cash has admitted his wrongdoing in court.
Kevin Borg, a 41-year old Ghaxaq resident, currently jobless, was accused of carrying out the hold-up at around 3:15pm on Monday.
He wore a face mask and hoodie and was armed with a penknife when he turned up at the outlet on Triq Tumbarellu, Ghaxaq, demanding money from the 19-year old attendant.
As she handed over a €20 note, the alleged aggressor apologised and promised to return the money, the court was told.
He was subsequently tracked down and arrested at his hometown on Wednesday afternoon.
