Family plans to sell house after children chased by man in black van
Hi neighbours, a Devonport family are considering selling their house after their children were chased by a man driving a black van with tinted windows as they ran from the end of their street to their parents, who were watching from their front yard. The man pulled into their driveway after the children, put his lights on full-beam, reversed and fled. The mother also believed the same van pulled into their driveway again during the night. Police say they are aware of series of suspicious approaches in the Belmont area and are making inquiries.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
