The King of the sea has been caught red-finned after an aggravated robbery.

A teenager dressed in a blue and white shark onesie, who allegedly robbed a Canterbury petrol station, has been arrested, police say.

Dressed in the onesie with a bandana over his face, the teenager was one of two who robbed a BP petrol station in Rolleston earlier this month.

The pair made off with a haul of confectionery around 2:20am, after threatening staff  with a hammer and a knife, and smashing glass shelving. 

They appeared in Christchurch Youth Court on Tuesday, and were charged with aggravated robbery. They are scheduled to reappear in court in April.
