Four teens scared off by 21-year-old man working at his family dairy in Auckland
Hi neighbours,
Adrenaline hit a 21-year-old man when four masked teens entered his family’s superette while he worked with his sister.
Manav Prasad and his younger sister were starting to close Kauri Park Superette in Beach Haven on Saturday night when four masked men entered.
“They were after smokes ... they jumped on the counter and I just started screaming at them,” Prasad said.
Prasad told Stuff he grabbed a hockey stick, that is kept behind the counter for security, and waved it at them to try scare them off – which he succeeded in.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
