Police appeal for information following Christchurch aggravated robbery
Christchurch police are appealing for information after an aggravated robbery in the suburb of Hornby on Friday.
Detective Sergeant Rebecca Podmore said four masked people entered a store on Main South Road at about 7.30 pm, stole items and fled in a car.
During the robbery, one staff member was assaulted, and their arm was broken, she said.
They were taken to the hospital in an ambulance.
The escape vehicle was later found in Ellesmere Road in Lincoln, but suspects have so far evaded police.
Police were urging anyone with information about the incident or the alleged offenders to come forward.
They were particularly seeking anyone who saw or has footage of a Grey Toyota RAV4 around Main South Road between 7 pm and 8pm on Friday.
