Police hunt video store robbers

Police are hunting for two men who robbed a busy South Auckland video store last night armed with a baseball bat.

The men threatened two shop assistants in the United Video store in Great South Rd, Manukau, about 7.15pm, before escaping with an unknown amount of cash.

Police said there were a number of customers in the shop at the time and they would like witnesses to come forward with any information.

Both men had their faces covered with bandanas.
