A McDonald's restaurant in Auckland's Mount Roskill has had most of its glass windows smashed in a robbery overnight by seven teenagers.
The police say seven offenders aged between 16 and 18 have been arrested and will appear in Auckland Youth Court on Tuesday.
Detective Senior Sergeant Martin Friend said the group were reported to be armed with hammers and metal poles, and had gained entry into the Stoddard Road restaurant by smashing its windows.
"The offenders have allegedly targeted cash before fleeing in the same two vehicles they arrived in," he said.
Friend said both vehicles were located abandoned on Gifford Avenue and Donald Crescent.
CCTV footage of the wider area showed another vehicle as linked.
"Staff located this vehicle at an address on Dominion Road and Delta were able to track the group to a property where seven people were quickly taken into custody," Friend said.
The police said no one was hurt in the incident.
The police said will oppose bail for the seven offenders.
