Poll: Do you believe more youth workers are needed in Otara?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

More youth workers are needed in Otara to stop young people getting "sucked into" gangs, said Manukau Ward councillor Efeso Collins.

His comments follow a spate of shootings in Otara in South Auckland.

A house was shot at in the third incident of its kind in Auckland on Saturday.

BRASS SCREWS SCATTERED ON CAVENDISH DRIVE!!!!

Carissa from Papatoetoe

At 1.00pm today, I spotted a pile of brass screws at the intersection of Norman Spencer Drive and Cavendish Drive in the Eastbound lane outside Chipmunks that have now been scattered all over the road. I called it through to Auckland Transport. But be careful, they could be all the way along Cavendish by now. Check tyres tonight and in the morning.
