Bit Too Close To Home

Paraparaumu bank held up by robber [From RNZ]

Police said the man went into the ASB Bank at Coastlands mall at about 4:30pm on Friday, threatened staff and presented what appeared to be a firearm.

"No shots were fired and no one was injured during this incident, although staff were understandably shaken," police said in a statement.

The man took off with an undisclosed sum of money, fleeing the scene on foot.

The bank is located on the outer perimeter of the mall, next to a main entrance. Police want to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time and saw the man leaving.
