Hair pulling, tools thrown in neighbours' gardening dispute
Hey Otago neighbours,
A spot of gardening turned violent as neighbours pulled hair rather than weeds.
Police were called to a neighbourly dispute at Coolock Cres, in the Dunedin suburb of Waverley, about 3.30pm on Sunday.
Acting Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond said the dispute centred on the boundary of a garden, and led to a minor assault and threatening behaviour.
That included a woman throwing her neighbour’s plants and gardening equipment down a hill, and some hair pulling.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
