Community Constable Don Allan's May newsletter
Good afternoon Neighbours,
Don states that last month property was up 1.3% from the previous month, 59% reported happened during the day which is common whereas industrial burglaries tend to be targeted at night.
Last month police recovered twenty-eight stolen motor vehicles in our community.
13 of these vehicles were recovered in the Onehunga area, 6 in Royal Oak, 5 in Epsom,3 in Penrose and 1 in Hillsborough. Don has personally recovered a number of these, many he states were due to vigilant residents noticing unfamiliar cars abandoned in their streets.
Number plate theft is ongoing with 74 stolen in Auckland in the last 28 days. ( see the email - onehunga@cpnz.org.nz ) on how to get temper proof screws fitted.
Stolen motorcycles -28 stolen within Auckland, the majority of those stolen being Japanese brands such as Yamaha’s Suzuki's, Honda’s and Kawasaki’s.
now... here comes Onehunga's statistics in general....
Onehunga :
Selwyn St – (6) 3 thefts from cars, 2 burglaries, 1 stolen motor vehicle Campbell Rd – (6) 3 burglaries, 3 stolen motor vehicles

See the attachment for Royal Oak/Epsom. Penrose. etc
Again Don offers advise to reduce burglary opportunities.
PLEASE pass this onto as many people as you can because I keep seeing ongoing contents stolen out of vehicles , which is fairly easy I think to stop it before it starts e.g. golf club, phones, lap tops, tools etc.
Thanks again to Don for keeping us informed :-)
Regards
Colleen

Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
