FULL TEXT BELOW:
A shot has been fired during an armed robbery at a Sydney pub.
Three men, two armed with firearms, entered the beer garden of a hotel on Parramatta Road, at Burwood, in Sydney's west, about 11.30pm (AEST) yesterday and threatened a security guard before patrons were ushered inside the pub.
Once inside, one of the armed men watched the patrons while the other two men went behind the bar and removed a sum of cash.
As the three offenders left the premises, a shot was fired into the ceiling before they jumped a back fence and fled the scene.
Nobody was injured.
Investigators are now appealing for anyone with information to come forward. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
