A man has been arrested following a burglary in Te Awamutu.
In the early hours of Sunday 14 May, a commercial premises on Bond Road was broken into and items worth over $5,000, including shirts and weightlifting equipment, was stolen.
Police executed a search warrant at a residential address in Te Awamutu on Tuesday, where an 18-year-old man was taken into custody and some of the stolen items were recovered.
