PA Auckland The Auckland police are searching for 15 Polynesian youths who attacked and robbed a busdriver, aged 26, in Papatoetoe on Saturday night. The Auckland Regional Authority driver was driving from the city towards Papatoetoe when he was surrounded by most of his 16 passengers about mid-
night. They demanded to be taken to Hunters Corner in Papatoetoe. When the driver refused, he was punched in the side of the head. The youths took $207 cash and bus tickets worth $332 then fled on foot from the bus stop down Coates Road towards Hunters Comer.
