Police have recovered stolen property...after youths ram-raided a shop near Auckland Airport overnight

The burglary happened on John Goulter Drive about 3.20 this morning.

Police say a group of young people drove a car through the front doors of the clothing store and took clothes before leaving in a second car.

An officer later saw the car speeding, but didn't pursue it.

They later found it crashed through a school fence and the occupants had left the scene.

One was found a short distance away with a broken leg and taken to hospital and police are still looking for the four other people involved.

The incident's the latest in a spate of ram raids across the North Island in the past week.
