Waiheke protector injured after being 'rammed' by marina developer's boat

Josephine Franks Reporter from Central Leader

A protector at the Kennedy Point marina site was left with a sprained neck and wrist after construction crew “rammed” her with their boat while she was protesting in the water.

Tensions have been escalating on Waiheke Island since construction started gathering pace a few weeks ago.

The developer, Kennedy Point Marina, confirmed it is reviewing the incident, and said protesters had “deliberately putting themselves into the path” of the vessel.
