An Armourguard van robbed by armed men outside the ASB bank
in Westgate
A black car may hold the key to an armed robbery in west
Auckland yesterday which netted three masked men thousands of
dollars.
Police have appealed for any sightings of the black vehicle
in Lazurite Drive, Henderson, after it was seen speeding away
from a stolen getaway car which the three robbers tried to
torch.
At last two of the men were holding guns when they held up an
Armourguard security van outside an ASB bank at the Westgate
Shopping Centre in west Auckland shortly before 5pm.
No shots were fired and no one was hurt but police said the
three men may have fled in another getaway car after trying
to torch the first car in Lazurite Dr.
"We would like anyone who has seen any suspicious activity in
that area to contact us," said Detective Sergeant Pete
Litherland.
