    Police want the public's help following an aggravated robbery in Whakatane

    Police want the public's help following an aggravated robbery in Whakatane


    Around 1am on Saturday, a person entered Caltex Whakatane on Commerce Street holding a knife.

    They jumped over the counter, demanding cigarettes and cash -- threatening the sole attendant working.

    Police say the individual wore a grey face mask with a teeth design printed on it, and a distinctive puffer hoodie.

    Anyone with information is being asked to contact 10-five.
