A Meadowfresh worker was delivering milk to Capers on Eruera St just after 7am when a gold Subaru parked behind him in the driveway.

She believed there were two men in the car, wearing hoodies.
A police media spokeswoman said officers had the registration for the car and had visited the owner's home but they weren't there.

She said early reports indicated the driver had "driven on the footpath for a bit".
