Poll: Would you make a citizen's arrest?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A dairy owner whose brother was murdered while trying to stop a robbery is urging retailers to prioritise their safety if they attempt a citizen’s arrest.

Justice Minister Paul Goldsmith last week announced a proposed expansion of powers aimed at retail crime that would make the arrests possible at any time of day and for any crime.

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

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? 🍫
