Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.
He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.
Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.
He was then arrested and taken into custody.
A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.
The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.
A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

We'd love to hear about the great places you've discovered over your summer holidays, whether it's somewhere local or on a trip away.

Any activities or places to eat and drink you can recommend in the area would also be much appreciated.

Hi Hamilton,

Should New Zealanders be better educated on the behaviour of potentially dangerous wildlife?
While shark attacks are rare in New Zealand waters, it pays to remain vigilant if you are in the water Niwa expert Warrick Lyon says.
He states that people should refrain from swimming in deep channels of water where shallow water meets deep water in reef drop offs with one Department of Conservation expert advising against swimming at dusk.

If you have a parcel stolen do not assume it was taken by a random doorstep thief. it may have been taken by the courier. I was expecting a small parcel.

I was expecting a small parcel. I checked the tracking to find it had been delivered AND signed for by me. First i had NOT signed for it. I checked the property and no sign of it. Considering the claimed delivery time was 7:20am i do not think it was stolen on a quiet street at that hour by a random person passing. More likely taken by the deceitful driver that signed for it. Thank you Post Haste (delivering on behalf of NZ Couriers) for all the hassle and trying to blame it on me when if they did knock and i did not answer the door the could have left a card to call. they even sent the driver back to threaten me not to complain within minutes of calling them about it.
