Hawke's Bay police are investigating a robbery which took place at an address in Hastings.
The robbery occurred about 1.30am on Friday, December 28, on Jellicoe St.
A police spokesperson said that a woman, who lives at the address, was punched after disturbing the offender before he escaped on foot.
The offender is described as Maori, between 35 to 45-years-old of a tall, solid build with a short beard and curly hair.
Initial inquiries suggest this is an isolated incident and police say the wider community shouldn't be concerned.
