An alleged offender made the victim get into the vehicle to withdraw more money from a Stoddard Rd ATM.
He was then taken to another ATM before the offenders took off in a vehicle.
“The victim has contacted police immediately and at about 11.40pm officers located the vehicle abandoned on Emily Place,” Kirk said.
After police opened an investigation, they found the offenders had checked into a nearby hotel.
Police tasered the pair when they exited the room.
Kirk said a 32-year-old man and a 35-year-old woman will appear in Auckland District Court today, charged with assault with intent to injure, kidnapping and theft.
“This police activity should send a clear message to those involved in this unlawful behaviour that it will not be tolerated by police or the community.
“This is really seriously offending and police are focused on ensuring the victim gets the support they need following this traumatic incident.”
