    A man accused of robbing a Lower Hutt dairy wielding a machete over the weekend's landed himself in court

    A man accused of robbing a Lower Hutt dairy wielding a machete over the weekend's landed himself in court


    CCTV footage on social media shows a masked man entering the Birch Street dairy on Saturday.

    He waves a large machete at a staffer behind the counter - who then empties a shelf of cigarettes into the man's backpack.

    Police confirm they've arrested a 32-year-old man - since charged with aggravated robbery.

    He's appearing in District Court today.
