Northland teens arrested after stealing car, threatening shoppers with machete during robbery
Photo: RNZ / REECE BAKER Two Northland teens have been arrested after allegedly stealing a car and threatening shoppers with a machete during a failed robbery. Senior Sergeant Mark Barratt, of Mid-North police, said the offenders targeted a service station on Moerewa's main street just before 7pm on Tuesday. The youths were wearing ski masks and one was brandishing a machete. Barratt said staff and a customer were threatened before the pair took cigarettes and left in two stolen vehicles. Police found the cars dumped a short time later in Kaikohe and located two youths at a nearby house. Officers also found a bag containing the stolen cigarettes. Barratt said a 13 and 14-year-old appeared in the Kaikohe Youth Court on Wednesday charged with aggravated robbery and unlawfully taking a motor vehicle. They were due back in court on 31 July. "In this instance no one has sustained injuries as a result of the brazen offending," Barratt said. "This was good work by our staff in locating these two in a timely matter ... we will continue to hold to account those who think this type of offending is acceptable."
