Overview

• Leroy Tawanda Tsuro, 26, was extradited from New Zealand to Western Australia on May 29 to face armed robbery charges stemming from a Morley McDonald’s attack.
• Police allege Tsuro stormed the restaurant just before midnight wielding a large meat cleaver and inflicted lacerations on two employees.
• After the heist, Tsuro fled to Auckland and taunted WA Police by phone, sparking a prolonged pursuit and an extradition battle he contested on grounds of age and delay.
• Tsuro appeared in Perth Magistrates Court on May 30, where a magistrate ruled he was a flight risk and refused bail, scheduling his next return in July.
• Authorities say another man was initially charged over the incident and that Tsuro escaped the scene in a Honda CRV after the robbery.
