A Chubb security guard is facing jail for helping robbers organise three attacks on his employer’s armoured vans in Melbourne.
In one case the security guard, Rhys Tilbrook, 33, posed as a victim when a man armed with an imitation pistol attacked him and a colleague and ran away with $170,000.
However, the thieves failed in their next two raids, one of which was described by a defence lawyer as the “most stupid, absurd” attempt at a robbery he had ever seen.
Tilbrook provided associates, including his former girlfriend Anne Margaret Giacominato, 28, with details about times, routes and how much cash Chubb vans would be carrying.
