Christchurch Police appealing for information after robbery
Police are appealing for help to find two balaclava-clad robbers who threatened a liquor store manager with a metal baseball bat before stealing thousands of dollars of goods.

CCTV footage from the shop released by police shows the men – wearing baseball caps, dark hoodies and gloves – bursting into the shop and running to the till to steal cigarettes and cash. Read more here.
