Three teenagers who are believed to have played a role in a series of aggravated robberies including at a jewellery store in Glenfield Mall yesterday have been arrested.
Waitematā West CIB Detective Senior Sergeant Megan Goldie said the three, aged 14, 15 and 16, were arrested after police executed a search warrant this morning at a Panmure address.
At the property where police located the three alleged offenders from Saturday’s raid on Michael Hill jewellery store at the North Shore Mall, weapons believed to have been used in the incident and a significant amount of jewellery and other items were also found.
Goldie said the investigation was still in the early stages but police believe the group are also linked to the aggravated robbery of a Western Springs service station on May 3, and a New Plymouth jewellery store on May 5.
