Selwyn Police advise that last night between 6 and 8:30pm a burglary occurred in Wards Road. During this time at a neighbouring address a female was caught looking into the sitting room, and when challenged by the occupant she stated that she needed petrol.
She had arrived in a Silver Nissan Tida motor vehicle that was driven by a male.

Descriptions:
Female - Caucasian, 18-20, wearing black 3/4 pants, black frilly top, long straight black hair.
Male - Māori/Pacific Islander, 18-20.

If you have any information relating to this incident please call the Police on (03) 363 7400. They would much rather receive information that turns out to be unrelated than have people not call.
Remember, if you see anything that might be suspicious call the Police immediately on 111.
Stay safe and look after your neighbours.
From the Selwyn Emergency Management Team.
