New Plymouth community: increased presence of Police on Coronation Avenue
Members of the New Plymouth community may notice an increased presence of Police on Coronation Avenue on Thursday 3 July.
During this time, people may see Police in tactical uniforms carrying training firearms, and there may also be some noise.
Police would like to reassure the public that there is no cause for concern and that exercises like this are a vital component of policing that enables staff to be best placed to keep our communities safe.
These types of exercises could not happen without the support of our local community, and we want to thank the public for their support and cooperation.
