A 25-year-old man has been charged in relation to a spree of violent burglaries in Auckland's North Shore.

The man was arrested last Friday in the Wairau Valley area, after the victim of another burglary provided a description of the vehicle that fled the scene.

He faces two counts of robbery, three counts of burglary, two counts of assault with intent to rob, and a charge of driving while disqualified.

The man was expected to appear in North Shore District Court on Monday afternoon.
