An 18-year-old man who, along with three teenagers, allegedly threatened to stab another teenager at a busy bus stop only metres from the Noosa Heads glitter strip will remain in custody, a court has been told.
Elijah Leo Seeto, 18, had his matter mentioned in the Maroochydore Magistrates Court on December 5 after he and three other teenagers, two aged 15 and one aged 17, were arrested following the alleged robbery at the bus stop on the corner of Noosa Parade and Noosa Dr, near Hastings St, about 12.10pm Sunday, December 3.
Mr Seeto is charged with one count of robbery while in company and pretending to be armed and one of seriously assaulting an officer causing bodily harm.
