Police had eyes in many places, arresting a group of offenders following an aggravated robbery in Titirangi last night.

The trio were eventually arrested in Takanini after being tracked across the region.

Waitematā CIB’s Detective Senior Sergeant Megan Goldie says offenders arrived at a dairy on Titirangi Road just after 8.30pm.

“The offenders attempted to steal a range of items from the store, including the till, but only managed to take some food items.

“During the course of the offending, the store worker was knocked to the ground and threatened with a weapon, but was not injured.”

Both offenders fled in a vehicle from the scene.

A Police camera operator soon located this vehicle travelling on Portage Road.

“The camera operator was able to guide the Police helicopter to its location, where it took over observations,” Detective Senior Sergeant Goldie says.

“It was seen travelling onto the South-Western motorway where it failed to stop for a unit.”

The vehicle was successfully spiked on Porchester Road, before eventually coming to a stop.

Detective Senior Sergeant Goldie says three occupants fled from the vehicle and were soon arrested by Police.

Those arrested include the 20-year-old driver and two passengers, aged 13 and 14.

The driver faces charges of aggravated robbery, dangerous driving and failing to stop.

A 14-year-old has also been charged with aggravated robbery.
