Police arrested five youths aged 11 to 14 after spiking a stolen vehicle allegedly used in a ram raid on a Napier dairy.
The Manna Family Mart on Marine Parade was broken into during the early hours of Tuesday morning.
The store’s owner said icecream, chips and softdrinks were taken and thousands of dollars of damage was done to the store during the ram raid.
Binu Thomas earlier said his shop had been broken into more than once and the offenders were usually youths.
The stolen vehicle that had been used in the burglary was spotted by a police patrol overnight Tuesday in central Napier.
