Attribute to Area Commander Inspector Scott Miller:

A swift response by Police ensured four offenders were caught as they tried to flee across districts following a violent assault yesterday.

Officers in Hamilton responded to a report of an aggravated burglary around 10pm on Ulster Street where an address was forcefully entered and one person seriously assaulted before attempting to steal their motorcycle.

The offenders fled the scene in a vehicle, and making their way to Auckland via the motorway.
