The Team from North Shore, Rodney & West Auckland Police

Police are asking the public to keep an eye out for a unique art piece stolen during a burglary in west Auckland.

The Waitematā West Tactical Crime Unit is investigating a burglary in the Piha area on 6 December 2025.

Detective Sergeant Anna Freestone says scrap metal and tools were amongst items stolen, but also an valuable artwork called ‘Infinite Sea’.

“The round artwork is made up of glass, a mirror, led lighting and PVC,” she says.

“It’s a distinctive piece of art and we’re asking anyone in the public who has information on its whereabouts to get in touch.

It may be that this artwork has been offered up or advertised for sale, and we need to hear from you.”

Some Choice News!

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!
