Police Arrest Man Following Napier Robbery

A man has been arrested in Kāpiti this morning in relation to the aggravated 
robbery of a Napier retail premise yesterday afternoon.

Police were notified just before 2pm yesterday of a robbery at a retail 
premise on Gloucester St, Greenmeadows.

A man allegedly entered the store holding an axe and threatened staff before 
taking a quantity of cash and cigarettes. He fled the scene prior to Police 
arrival.

No one was injured in the incident.

A 32-year-old man was located at a Paraparaumu address early this morning and 
is due to appear in the Porirua District Court today facing charges of 
aggravated robbery and breaching conditions.

Police are continuing to investigate the robbery and are seeking information 
from the public which may assist. Anyone who was in the Gloucester St area 
yesterday and saw anything suspicious, or has any other information, is asked 
to get in touch by calling 105 and quoting file number 211011/8890.
