April 29, 2022

Two more burglaries in Auckland have been reported overnight, police say.

Police said they were called at 5am Friday about an earlier incident on Sylvia Park Road, Mount Wellington where a vehicle had been used to get into a shop.

Police said they would be working with the business to see what items had been taken and get any CCTV footage they may have.

The incident followed another burglary at Station Road, Penrose at about 11.30pm on Thursday.

Police said offenders used tools to force their way into a post office.

"The offenders have then fled the area in a stolen vehicle.

"Police will be reviewing any available CCTV footage as well as conducting forensic enquiries at the store."

The thieves used a hammer to break the glass on the front window and stole cigarettes among other property. (Source: Supplied)

There had been several serious robberies this week alone. A number of the incidents included children, including an attempt to rob a Hamilton mall and a robbery at an Auckland dairy.
