Shoppers rushed to the rescue of a man who was left bleeding after a robbery at a liquor store, right, in Clover Park, South Auckland yesterday. He was taken to Auckland City Hospital in a critical condition. A staff member at the neighbouring dollar store said customers came running into the shop to grab supplies for the injured man. The victim, a staff member at the Chapel Downs Discount Liquor store, was hit over the head with a bottle and was “bleeding badly everywhere”, she said. Doctors and nurses at a nearby clinic also rushed out to assist.
