Appeal for information: Robbery of Northlands Mall Christchurch
"Appeal for information: Robbery of Northlands Mall Christchurch"
At about 11.20pm on Saturday 30 March 2019, three males entered the Countdown Northlands Mall supermarket. One of the males was armed with a metal pole, similar in appearance to a crowbar.
One male stood at the entrance to the supermarket while the other two entered the store.
They approached a staff member at the cash registers and robbed her of a sum of money, before running from the store. She was not injured, but shaken.
As they left, one of the males assaulted a security guard with the metal pole. The security guard sustained a minor injury that did not require hospitalisation.
The three offenders disguised their appearance with dark coloured hoodies and gloves and they wore balaclavas over their faces and one of them carried a backpack.
Information is sought by Police as to the identity of these three offenders. Anyone with information should contact Constable Steph Gemmill of Christchurch Police, on (03) 363 7400.
Alternatively, anyone with information can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
34% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
66% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)

How much does it cost to join AEA?
There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
