Man abducted at knifepoint

A Hamilton man was abducted last night from a phone booth near the Westfield Shopping Centre by two men holding a knife.

They drove the victim in his own car to Karapiro where they stopped on Hickey Rd and asked him to remove his clothes and wallet before leaving him in his underpants at the side of the road.

Police are still looking for the victim's black hatchback Mazda Familia, registration number SZ2656.
