Four people have been arrested in a stolen vehicle in Pukekohe following an aggravated robbery in Rototuna, Hamilton on Tuesday afternoon.

The incident occurred when an alleged offender was interrupted while interfering with a vehicle in a supermarket car park about 4pm on 21 June.

The alleged offender and victim got into a brief altercation. A second offender then began assaulting the victim.

A third offender then drove a vehicle toward a witness who attempted to intervene.
