A man is due to face the Court today for his alleged role in an aggravated robbery in Westgate on Sunday afternoon.
Detective Inspector Glenn Baldwin, Auckland City CIB, says Police investigating the incident at a West Auckland shopping centre were later made aware of a vehicle of interest travelling in Manurewa.
“Just after 9pm on Sunday, Police responded to reports of the vehicle travelling on Browns Road.
“The Police Air Support Unit, Eagle, was soon above to provide directions to units on the ground.
“The vehicle allegedly failed to stop for Police when signalled to do so and was observed driving in a concerning manner throughout the area.”
Detective Inspector Baldwin says the vehicle eventually came to a stop on Rowandale Road.
“The driver left the area on foot, however was located and taken into custody a short time later without further incident.”
The 27-year-old man has since been arrested and charged in relation to this incident.
“He is due to appear in the Waitākere District Court this morning on charges relating to aggravated robbery and failing to stop.”
