## Summary

Two masked thieves allegedly robbed Wallsend Bakery in New South Wales before dawn on Saturday, taking $250 from the till. When owner Minh Nguyen confronted them, one threw bread rolls at him and his wife, Thi Ha, before both fled. The couple say they no longer feel safe, highlighting the pressures and security concerns facing small businesses.

The bakery owners believe the pair were men and said they were carrying knives. They continued trading that day, but plan to open later than 6am as a precaution; they also referred to an earlier incident in September without giving details. Police said no arrests had been made as of Thursday, while the local community rallied around the family, who said they would give money received in support to charity.
