SA: Bakery robbed by syringe bandit

A thief who robbed a bakery in Adelaide today wasn't after the hot cross buns.

Police say the robber went the whole hog -- and took away the entire cash register.

They say a man armed with a syringe held up the bakery, at Collinswood in the city's
northern suburbs, at about 4.30 this afternoon.

He demanded cash -- but ended up escaping with the cash register itself.

Police are searching for a white Sigma sedan used as a getaway vehicle.
