A man armed with a firearm stole cash from a Christchurch TAB today.
The man, disguised with a balaclava, entered the Merivale store on St Albans St shortly before 11.30am, police said.
An accomplice waited outside for him in a late-1980s red Ford Falcon flatbed ute.
The man raised the firearm and demanded money from a staff member behind the counter, police said.
"He was given the small amount of money from the till and left."
