Appeal for information: Identifying deceased man, Heathcote Valley

The Team from Canterbury Police

Police can now release an image of the backpack, and its contents, located with the man found deceased on Horotane Valley Road, Heathcote Valley on Friday 19 September.

We appreciate all those who have come forward with information so far and continue to follow lines of enquiry where they become available; unfortunately, the man remains unidentified.

Police are hoping that these images, paired with a description of the deceased, may be recognised by someone in the community.

The man is thought to be in his 30’s or 40’s, with a distinctive birthmark on his left forearm. When located he was wearing a black long sleeve woollen jersey, black trousers and grey tramping boots.

If you have any information that could assist us in identifying this man, please contact Police on 105 and quote file number 250919/7193.

You can also report anonymously via Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111 or www.crimestoppers-nz.org

Got more greens than you know what to do with? 🥦🌱🥕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Whether it’s a courgette takeover or a feijoa frenzy, don’t let those garden gems go to waste!

Our suggestion to you: Did you know you can grate and freeze excess courgettes to use in chocolate cake later? It sounds a bit dodgy, but it makes the cake incredibly moist ... and hey, it counts as a serving of veg, right? 🍫

I have two faces, but show you only one.
I once had guests, but now have none.
I’m rarely bloody and seldom blue.
I’m often promised and sometimes new
