A New Lynn dairy owner and his wife have been left traumatised and unable to sleep after being robbed by three men at gunpoint.
Two of the robbers were masked and carrying firearms when they walked into the Rimu Superette yesterday afternoon about 4pm and pointed the guns at the terrified owner.
The man's wife was also in the store at the time, but was not seen by the robbers, and fled unharmed.
"They had a black pistol, a small one that you can hold with one hand," said the owner, who asked not to be named.
