"Orange smoke haze causing increased 111 calls"

Brian from New Lynn

Police are asking people not to call the 111 emergency number to report the orange haze in the sky caused by the Australian bush fires. We are currently receiving high numbers of calls related to this. While we appreciate these conditions may be causing concern, the 111 emergency number is for instances when:
• Someone is breaking into your house right now
• There is car accident where people might be hurt, or cars are blocking the road
• Someone has been assaulted and the offender is still there
• You are afraid for your safety and or for those around you
• You need an emergency Police response
For further information relating to when to call 111 please go to www.police.govt.nz...

Suspicious Guy

Jan from Te Atatu South

Keep an eye on this guy, pretended to read the water meter, then wandered up the drive crowbar in hand when I asked what he wanted he said power and is there a dog.We have smart meters. He opened my neighbours gate (we are 3 units) and went in the back of her place with his crowbar. My son went round there and he took off. Police informed.
