Police have made two arrests over the violent robberies of three dairies in Tauranga.

A 16-year-old will appear in the Tauranga Youth Court on Thursday charged with the aggravated robbery of the Brookfield Superette on Friday.

A 24-year-old Tauranga man will appear in the Tauranga District Court today charged with the aggravated robbery of the Cameronian Dairy and the 14th Ave Dairy last month.

Detective Senior Sergeant Greg Turner said good old fashioned detective work went into making the arrests.
