A woman who robbed the Windsor Park Store in March has been jailed for two years and eight months.
Sehelasa Valenitaine Moala appeared before Judge Bridget Mackintosh for sentencing in the Napier District Court yesterday.
The 31-year-old was one of two females who robbed the Hastings dairy, located on the corner of Windsor Ave and Louie St, on March 11 this year.
She was charged with aggravated robbery, as well as four counts of shoplifting and one each of theft and using a document to obtain a pecuniary advantage.
Moala and her co-offender, who was noted as "unidentified" in court, demanded cash and cigarettes from the shop keeper and, when he told them he couldn't open the till, her co-offender repeatedly smashed it with a chain measuring half a metre.
