After our last class in Grafton, a few of my pharmacy friends and I were walking past the Grafton shops opposite the Auckland City Hospital when we came past this Korean liquor shop which had a policeman standing around the entrance and some lady with a massive camera taking photos. We weren't too sure what had happened and it was a bit odd there was even a police photographer at the scene, especially if it was just for a burglary! These days police only focus on the serious things like issuing speeding tickets and murders.
It was not till I went on the Newstalk ZB website that I discovered what exactly happened there earlier in the day:
'Auckland police are speaking to a teenager who hid in a toilet after allegedly robbing a liquor store.
Members of the public reported seeing a man running from the Park Rd shops in Grafton at around 11.20am. He was being chased by a woman who was bleeding from the head.
Police say witnesses saw the man run into Starship Hospital and lock himself in a toilet where staff kept him until police arrived.
They say a 17-year-old is being interviewed about a liquor store robbery at the Park Rd shops, where the attendant was hit on the head with a bottle.'
