Thanks to the brave and quick actions of these members of the public (pictured centre and centre right) – an offender who was trying to make a getaway after stealing money from a Henderson dairy was stopped and swiftly arrested. 👏

Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.

He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.

Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.

He was then arrested and taken into custody.

A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.

The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.

A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

Hi Hamilton,

Should New Zealanders be better educated on the behaviour of potentially dangerous wildlife?

While shark attacks are rare in New Zealand waters, it pays to remain vigilant if you are in the water Niwa expert Warrick Lyon says.

He states that people should refrain from swimming in deep channels of water where shallow water meets deep water in reef drop offs with one Department of Conservation expert advising against swimming at dusk.

Share your thoughts below and don't forget to type NFP if you don't want your comments featured in the conversations section of the Hamilton Press.
