Arrest after joy ride with stolen milk truck
Hi neighbours. One person has been arrested after allegedly stealing and taking a milk delivery truck for a joy ride around south Auckland.
Police attempted to stop the vehicle about 7.25am, however the driver continued to flee.
The truck was spiked by police and continued for a short time, before it hit a power pole at low speed on Great South Rd in Papatoetoe.
The chase resulted in a lot of spilt milk.
"It was all over the road and all over the car park. People were just taking off with milk instead of helping the truck driver," a witness said.
