Selwyn Gets Ready Notice
Selwyn Police advise that last night between 6 and 8:30pm a burglary occurred in Wards Road. During this time at a neighbouring address a female was caught looking into the sitting room, and when challenged by the occupant she stated that she needed petrol.
She had arrived in a Silver Nissan Tida motor vehicle that was driven by a male.
Descriptions:
Female - Caucasian, 18-20, wearing black 3/4 pants, black frilly top, long straight black hair.
Male - Māori/Pacific Islander, 18-20.
If you have any information relating to this incident please call the Police on (03) 363 7400. They would much rather receive information that turns out to be unrelated than have people not call.
Remember, if you see anything that might be suspicious call the Police immediately on 111.
Stay safe and look after your neighbours.

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?
-
37.1% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.9% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
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!
