An armed robber repeatedly hit a man with a chisel in a desperate attempt to escape after he was chased down and restrained by the victim in Braddon.
The incident left the victim, who was trying to retrieve his laptop, with a lengthy list of injuries, including gashes on his chest and the back of his neck.
Offender Jay Ruwhiu received his punishment on Thursday, when he was sentenced in the ACT Supreme Court to four years in jail for the aggravated robbery and previous crimes of burglary and theft.
