Three men, aged 19-22, have been arrested after a brazen early-morning armed robbery on Hobson St, Auckland City, led to a short pursuit.
Police responded to the call around 4.20am on Sunday when a group of five people were approached by the three offenders and threatened with what were described as pistols.
Auckland City CIB detective senior sergeant Scott Armstrong said the group had personal items taken from them.
“The victims were unharmed, but understandably shaken by the incident,” he said.
