Police seek information about Rānui fire
Waitematā Police is seeking information about a fire at a Rānui house in the early hours of the morning.
Emergency services attended Vino Cina Heights after midnight, with the roof fully alight.
A scene examination was completed today at the address alongside a fire investigator.
“We believe this fire has been caused by a flare, which is commonly used by boaties and one that launches a projectile,” acting Detective Inspector Megan Goldie, Waitematā CIB says. “Based on enquiries so far it appears this is an accidental fire as a result of reckless actions.”
It’s by good fortune only that Police are not dealing with fatalities. “The house is completely uninhabitable and has been extensively damaged.”
Acting Detective Inspector Goldie says Police is seeking information about two people seen running away from the area. “As a result of an area canvass this morning, residents have reported seeing two people running away after a loud bang was heard.”
A short time later the fire began.
Acting Detective Inspector Goldie says: “If you have any information, we need to hear from you.
“I would also call on those people who are involved to do the right thing and own up to what has happened.”
Anyone with further information to assist us should contact 105 using the reference number 260211/6037.
Information can also be provided anonymously via Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.

Outdated 'Recent Notices in New Zealand'
Can anyone here or from Neighbourly.co.nz please explain to me why we have the so called ''Recent Notices in New Zealand' a.k.a. death notices tab here on Neighbourly when if fact, the most recent death notice is from 2023?
I don't know if anyone has used this tab recently, if ever, I only used when looking for a friend's recent death notice.
If this isn't going to be updated or in fact be what they say it is, 'Recent Notices in New Zealand', then please replace it with something we can all access with up to date information, maybe bring back the groups option - just a thought.
Any ideas people?
