The Team from New Zealand Police

πŸš— Vehicle parked in a visible location, or off the street if possible.
πŸš™ Valuables, including keys, removed from vehicle, or stored safely out of sight.
πŸš— Vehicle locked & keys taken with you.
πŸš™ Keys & key chains do not display names, addresses, or license plate numbers.
πŸš— Number plates secured with anti-theft screws (available at car accessory stores).
πŸš™ Alloy wheels secured with fit locking, anti-tamper wheel nuts.
πŸš— Car ownership information stored at home, not in the vehicle.
πŸš™ Vehicle fitted with an anti-theft device, such as a steering wheel lock or alarm.
πŸš— If the vehicle is keyless, β€˜keys’ (or entry device) kept a safe distance from the car, away from doors & windows so the signal cannot be interfered with.
πŸš™ Get to know neighbours & their vehicles so you’ll know if you see something that doesn’t seem right.

Always report suspicious behaviour in your neighbourhood.

If it's already happened, phone 105 or report at 105.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.
