Thanks for the $1400 worth of damage to my car! (Pt 2)

Tim from Petone

N/B
I have to amend the post.
I had some really great help from the security staff at Queensgate. Fantastic actually.
They reviewed the footage and it appears my car was not hit on Monday in the carpark there.

So it happened on Nelson Street, Petone. I don't know when but given there was no surface rust on the metal, It was Monday or Sunday. This is the third time this has happened on the Street, one time a gentleman left a note.
Anyhow the rest is pertinent

Big thank you to the Piece of S*** who didn't leave their details, after hitting the right-hand rear of my car, ( NOT around 11.30 am, Monday at the Queensgate Carpark.) on Nelson Street, Petone It was the Blue Impreza.
Luckily I'm insured, (but have a $400 excess) I'm guessing that you are not, on top of that, an appalling driver, and are a very dishonest person.

So thank you so much.

I have Security at Queensgate reviewing cameras now) - (Thanks Brendan for suggesting, I didn't think about doing that)

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.

scumbags

Sandra from Waiwhetu

There are some really awful people around at the moment. This is what happened on Sunday.
We live in Hinemoa Street opposite the Waiwhetu Stream. At around 3.40 in the afternoon I was looking out my window and saw a car pull up and start to feed the geese and ducks out the window. Then The passenger an asian man jumped out and threw himself onto a goose. he picked it up and put it the boot of the car.
I immediately ran over and stood in front of his car to stop him moving I also called my husband to help. A lovely man was riding his bike and saw it and stopped to help me. The driver tried to drive into me but I didnt move. He tried telling us it was his pet. These are wild geese.

They had a cage in the boot and some wire all ready to catch the poor bird like they have done it before. My husband took the bird from the car and released it. I then moved out of the way and after lots of abuse from the driver they drove off threatening to come back and get more.
No one should be allowed to take these beautiful birds and certainly not like this. they are all starting to have wee babies at the moment the whole thing was so upsetting to me. Another neighbour further down the road also saw it all happen.
Please keep a look out for this car and if you see them by the stream go over and watch them lets all stop this happening.
