NZ Police Weekly Crime Alert Pictures
Hi Neighbours,
Attached is the weekly crime alert and below is another plea from our Onehunga Community Constable Don Allan suggesting how to reduce car break ins and being vigilant about mail boxes being cleared regularly and locked. Once they get your credit or store cards or banking info they're off spending your money !!!
Regards
Colleen
Update:
We are still seeing a bit of vehicle crime occurring in the area so please keep vigilant and remove all contents from your vehicle when parked up.
Mail theft is also occurring through our community so please be vigilant and clear letterboxes regularly and do not let mail and flyers accumulate in your letter boxes. Good quality latches and locks may be useful, however criminals are still jimmying locked letterboxes in order to get at your mail. If you see something, say something.
All suspicious activity should be reported immediately to Police on 111 and if a photo can be obtained of individuals engaging in the activity, please forward to police as soon as possible, this will be most useful in helping to identify those responsible. Nonetheless, do not put yourself in harm’s way trying to photograph criminals.
Have a safe weekend.
Kind regards
Don

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.

Some Choice News!
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!
