Secure your homes over summer
Police are reminding people to keep their homes secure during the summer months.
Inspector Glenda Barnaby, Christchurch Area Prevention manager, says daytime burglaries are just as common as nightime burglaries.
“Burglaries can be committed at any time of the day, and coming into warmer months there is more opportunity for thieves."
"Although a majority of burglaries involve forced entry through windows and doors, we are starting to see more incidents at insecure premises. Police deal with cases where burglaries are committed in broad daylight, sometimes even while the victim is at home. Good weather means open doors and windows, which makes homes more vulnerable to burglars.”
Inspector Barnaby says there’s a few things people can do to reduce their changes of a burglary being committed.
⚠️ If you’re going outside for gardening, relaxing in the sun, or working in the garage, take a moment to lock your doors and secure your windows first.
⚠️ Do the same at night when you go to bed - keep your doors and windows secure and close your curtains. Fitting window stays means you can get a breeze coming through, while keeping your windows secure.
⚠️ Get to know your neighbours - let them know if you’re going away and look out for one another.”
If you see any suspicious activity, people or vehicles in your neighbourhood, don't hesitate to contact Police.
If you witness or suspect any illegal activity, please call 111 if it is happening now, or make a report through 105 either online or over the phone, if it is after the fact.

Another fantastic curry.
Another fantastic $13 lunch curry, rice and naan from Sultan Boofiya Kitchen which is just a little down and opposite Moore Wilson's.
Also comes with a can of drink, but I usually leave that as the deal is already really good value and quality, I want the owners to make a little bit more on them.
My go-to is at the moment Chicken Boona.
Rich tomato and onion sauce with a mild kick. ( If too hot, add a little cream to the curry )
Only a slight heat kick in my opinion.
I usually have half for lunch and the rest for dinner.
I do thoroughly recommend them and encourage you to visit.
My other favorites are lamb Rogan josh and mango chicken.
As I said, I have half for lunch and the other half for dinner.
It's fine microwaved a couple of minute and one minute for the naan.
I mean, you are paying close to and over $13 in the supermarket for a frozen one which aren't a patch of these freshly made ones.
Their chicken wings are good as are their Seekh kebab.
