Four people have been arrested as a Michael Hill jewellery store gets ramraided in Wellington.

Police were called to the shop near Manners Street at one this afternoon, after a group entered the store and display cases were smashed.

Their vehicle was stopped north of the city, police said in a statement.

Police are appealing for any footage of the incident from the public.

A Michael Hill Jewellers store was also raided in New Plymouth yesterday.
