Mail thefts in Dairy Flat, Coatesville areas

Caroline Williams Reporter from Rodney Times

Hi neighbours. Police are investigating a spate of mail thefts in the Dairy Flat and Coatesville-Riverhead areas. Residents have reported streets of mail boxes being found open in the mornings, missing mail and letters strewn across neighbourhoods in the last month.
Others reported finding stacks of opened mail addressed to different people in their mail boxes. Some were planning to booby trap their mail boxes with dog faeces or glitter in hopes of catching the culprits, but police advised against this, saying the investigation should be left to them.

Animal Abuser

Lois from Red Beach

🚨 URGENT WARNING TO ALL LOST & FOUND / PET REHOMING PAGES 🚨 and people rehoming pets or reporting lost animals.

It has come to our attention that a long-term, repeat animal abuser is still actively obtaining animals through Facebook groups.

The type of animal does not matter — birds, livestock, dogs, small pets — anything he can access.

He monitors rehoming pages. He approaches people offering “help.” He presents as reasonable. He will say the right things.

Do not give this person any animals under any circumstances.

If you are an admin of a lost & found page, a community group, or a pet rehoming group:

• Please stay vigilant
• Check profiles carefully
• Share this warning across your networks

Animals have already paid the price for people not knowing.
If you are unsure about someone requesting an animal, ask rescue groups to help.
