Police were called to a store on Logandowns Dr around 10:30pm on Monday, after an incident involving a group of teenage girls.

A verbal argument broke out when two workers approached the trio and requested they pay for the items.
Two of the girls allegedly each pulled out a knife and threatened the attendants, before all three took more food, damaged the front glass doors and left the store.
Police were arrested five youngsters nearby a short time later.
A 14-year-old and 12-year-old from Coomera and a 13-year-old from Drewvale have since each been charged with one count of armed robbery.
