Senior Constable Don Allan's monthly newsletter
Hi Neighbours,
I've attached Don's latest newsletter, good news - Hillsborough, Onehunga, Epsom & Penrose had a 17% decrease in crime last month , but wait there's more - Police recovered 26 stolen motor vehicles in our community - wahoo.
The Police recently, as a "safer roads 3 road policing operation" conducted several Police check points throughout Auckland where over 5000 drivers were stopped for passive breath tests . ( see page 2 of the newsletter for the results) "Drivers stopped by Police are required to state their name & address so the breath testing device may determine if alcohol is present on the breath of the driver." There are consequences if one refuses to comply with the info. ( see page 3 & 4 for consequences and the current breath alcohol limits & penalties)
The streets with multiple reported incidents were:
Onehunga Mall (11 incidents) 5 x burg, 3 x stolen motor, vehicle 3 x theft x-car
Moana Ave (5 incidents) 4x burgs 1 x stolen vehicle
Arthur St ( 5 incidents) 1 Theft from a car, 4 x stolen vehicles Heretaunga Ave ( 4 incidents) 4 x stolen vehicles

Best way to use leftovers?
I'm sure you've got some excess ham at home or cold roast potatoes.
What are some of your favourite ways to use leftover food from Christmas day? Share below.
⚠️ 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 ❤️
