NSW: Woman shot in bungled robbery
A woman has been shot during a bungled armed hold up of a newsagency near Bankstown,
in Sydney's south-west.
Police say a man wearing a ski mask and armed with a gun entered the Sefton newsagency
at about 10am this morning demanding money.
It's believed the gun discharged when another staff member tried to disarm the man.
The woman, who also worked at the newsagency, was injured by the discharge.
The woman was taken to Westmead Hospital where she is in a serious but stable condition.
Police believe there may have been an accomplice involved who drove the getaway car.
