Aggravated Robbery At Local Dairy
Just before 9pm last night three offenders entered the Avenal Dairy and stole a small amount of cash.
They were disguised and it appears they knew the layout of the store and most probably have frequented it recently.
One was armed with a knife.
The victim was shaken but unhurt by the incident.
Police are calling for public assistance for any information for people who may have been discussing robbing a dairy, may have seen suspicious activity or people hanging around the dairy previously or earlier in the evening.
Contact is Detective Sergeant Sean Cairns at Invercargill Police Station 03 211 0400.
