THREE teenage girls walked into an ice cream shop, took drinks from a fridge and then left saying they were not going to pay.
But the Baskin-Robbins shop attendant gave chase and caught one offender.
One of the girls now 18, and soon to turn 19, went before a judge in Ipswich Children’s Court on Monday to be sentenced for her role in the bungled drinks robbery 16 months after it took place near Caboolture.
The young Ipswich woman pleaded guilty to attempted robbery in company at the Baskin-Robbins ice cream shop in Morayfield on September 19, 2019.
Prosecutor, legal officer with the Crown, Ms Worthington said the offender was the oldest of the trio and aged 17 years and seven months at the time.

A BORED teenager in lockup at the Brisbane juvenile detention centre caused chaos when he phoned a government department warning that a bomb was set to explode beneath a desk.
The Toowoomba office of Queensland Youth Justice was evacuated while emergency services and police carried out a search.
No explosive device was found with an Ipswich court hearing that the teenager was bored because of the lockdown due to COVID-19.
Now aged 16 years and 10 months, the teenager, a father of one toddler, pleaded guilty in the dock of Ipswich Children’s Court on Monday to the crime of committing a bomb hoax.
