New Zealand Police are searching for two children of a fugitive father who was shot dead on Monday (September 8) after robbing a farm supply store in a small rural town in the region of Waikato in the North Island. Tom Phillips disappeared with his three children, now aged 9, 10, and 12, in late 2021 in a case that has made national headlines over his ability to evade arrest.
