Police last night responded to the robbery at the Maryhill dairy, which was reported to police at 8.40pm.
A weapon was presented during the robbery and the offender fled on foot, then got into a vehicle.
``Fortunately, no-one was injured,'' a police spokeswoman said.
Police were asked if there were any possible links between the two incidents, including if a similar red vehicle, believed to be a Mazda, had been involved in both
crimes.
A police spokeswoman replied police were making inquiries as to if the robbery was linked to the previous robbery ``but at this stage we're unable to confirm anything further''.
Masked offenders stole cigarettes from a South Dunedin dairy on Sunday night, the latest in a string of such incidents.
The two offenders wore masks and stole cigarettes before fleeing in a
vehicle.
The Elgin Food Market was also robbed just before 4.45pm on June 23 last year.
