Six youths are in custody and one person suffered an injury following an alleged shoplifting incident in Auckland’s Clover Park today.
Police said the incident left one man with minor injuries, which came from a “stab wound” in a confrontation outside the shop.
They were called after reports members of the group were stealing items from the shop.
“Five females aged between 13-16 years were referred to Youth Aid.”
One 16-year-old male was also arrested, for assault with a weapon, police added.
