Camera footage
Hi does anyone in the Raureka Hastings area have cameras on or facing towards Oliphant road that were operating on 27th Feb that could have captured a black hatchback vehicle between 10.25-10.40am travelling down Oliphant road and running over my friends dog. The vehicle dragged the dog and stopped by the shop and got out to have a look then took off. Any assistance be greatly appreciated. Thanks
