Senior Constable Don Allan's monthly newsletter
Happy New Year Neighbours ..... A big welcome back to our Community Constable Don Allan & Piper no doubt ! In January, retail crime thefts spiked throughout Auckland & Onehunga resulting in criminals arrested and 151 individual charges laid with a number of individuals sentenced for their criminal offending. The Police are focusing a portion of policing time specifically to retail theft for 2025 !
Don comments on the alcohol ban in Onehunga town centre - this means no alcohol is to be consumed within this area. Any breach should be reported to 111 so Police have an opportunity to attend and identify those responsible and deal with them accordingly.
The detailed January crime stats for Onehunga are on page 3. There were 11reported thefts ex car - Please take your items out of the car, so many times people leave their valuable items in the car - golf clubs, handbags, phones, laptops etc. Our other associated areas show the crime maps for those areas
Last but by no means least ..... Coffee with a cop returns

Stay Safe Neighbours

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲
The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.
We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?
