Police investigating a home invasion in Greenhithe at the weekend have made an arrest.
A 26-year-old West Auckland man was due to appear in the North Shore District Court this morning.
A couple woke to find a strange man in their bedroom in a home invasion on Sunday.
The Greenhithe couple were woken at 1.50am and saw the man - described as a Maori in his mid-20s - in their bedroom.
Police said that after a "brief dialogue" the man fled, jumping out a bathroom window and running from the house on Greenhithe Rd.
The man was barefoot at the time.
