Tony Wittman admits holding victim hostage at Melbourne Lost Dogs Home with an assault weapon while dressed in military-style gear
A former soldier has blamed post-traumatic stress disorder caused in part by two army tours in Afghanistan for holding a woman hostage in an attempt to get his cat back.
Armed with an assault weapon and dressed in full military-style clothing, Tony Wittman held the young woman at gunpoint as she showed up for a late-night shift at the Lost Dogs Home in Melbourne’s Cranbourne West.
