An arrest has been made for the armed robbery of an Invercargill dairy yesterday afternoon.

A 27-year-old man will appear in Invercargill District Court on Monday on a charge of aggravated robbery of the 4 Square store in Otatara.

Southland area commander Inspector Lane Todd says the arrest is a team result.

He says such a serious incident is a rarity in Southland, and his staff have worked hard to make the arrest.

Inspector Todd says it was a stressful situation for everyone involved, and the safety of the community was a top priority.
