An armed thief's plans to rob a San Ġwann massage parlour were foiled earlier today when a headstrong employee refused to comply with his demands. 

Wearing a hoodie and armed with a gun, the thief entered the Triq l-Ewkaliptus establishment at around 8pm and ordered that the woman behind the counter hand over money. She refused and he fled the store empty-handed.

Nobody was injured in the incident, police said. Investigations are ongoing.
