Police responded to another ram raid in Auckland overnight, at a west Auckland liquor store.
The front entrance of Henderson Valley Rd’s West Liquor was smashed in by offenders and a vehicle used to gain entry, photos of the site show.
The store’s manager arrived shortly after the incident occurred.
He wouldn’t comment but was “clearly frustrated”, according to a photographer at the scene.
It’s understood the storefront was still boarded up after a previous burglary at the shop.
