CAUTION: Mail Thieves Operating

Stephanie from Coatesville

Have you had wrongly addressed mail arrive in your letterbox recently, often from roads some distance away? Some of which had been opened?

Have you had expected mail or parcels not arrive?

Mail thieves are operating in the RD3 postal area.

Today (Wed Aug 07) mail has been taken from Wake Road, Ridge Road, Mill Flat Lane, Rangitopuni and some roads in Paremoremo. It is likely to be wider spread than just these roads but yet to be reported.

This has been discovered after discussions with one of the local postal delivery drivers, Angela (Ang).

Some of the mail taken was then redistributed, likely because it was of no value to the thieves and gave them an excuse to provide if challenged as to why they were looking in letterboxes.

If you have community or personal cctv that covers letterboxes and have a visual of any suspicious persons or vehicles operating in the last 2 days, please report to Police by calling 105 and updating the Police Event no. P038642443.

Mail theft may be a precursor to opportunistic burglary activity so please report suspicious activity including loitering vehicles and persons, with the vehicle description and registration plate.

Kind regards.

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
