A man used a cut-down shotgun when he robbed a bank in Te Awamutu.
About 4.15pm on Wednesday, the man entered the ASB Bank on George St and demanded money.
"An unknown amount of cash was taken before the male ran off down an alleyway towards the back of the
Countdown supermarket," a detective said.
Police described the robber as a stocky Maori or Pacific Islander who was wearing a grey hoodie top that covered his head and a scarf that covered his lower face.
He also had on dark long pants and sand shoes, and was carrying a dark-coloured backpack-styled school bag.
