Poll: Have you witnessed anything like this in your area?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

Staff at Hamilton’s award-winning Palate restaurant were left stunned after a robber walked in during daylight and made no attempt to hide his identity.

Police are investigating the brazen incident, which unfolded just after 4pm on Thursday when a man entered the Victoria St fine-dining spot, ripped open the till and fled with a few hundred dollars in cash.
