On Sunday, October 20, a man went into the Magic Chef takeaway bar at 142 Chapel Rd in Chapel Downs, brandished a machete at the shop assistant and demanded money.
The woman handed over a small amount of cash, and the man left the shop and ran up the road towards the Chapel Downs housing estate.
He is described as Maori or Pacific Islander, about 1.7m (5ft 7in), of medium build and wearing a red bandanna around his face. Anyone with information should phone Detective Constable Pat Yates of Otara CIU on 274-0016.
