Police helicopter tracks thief from CBD to North Shore

Caroline Williams Reporter from North Shore Times

Hi neighbours. A man who allegedly stole $5-6,000 worth of down feather puffer jackets from Macpac Ponsonby in a "grab and run" robbery was apprehended on Lake Rd after police traced his vehicle movements with the Eagle helicopter. The man was charged with shoplifting and will appear in the Auckland District Court on Friday.
Have you heard of any other stores targeted for "grab and run" type thefts? Let us know in the comments.
