Thanks to the brave and quick actions of these members of the public (pictured centre and centre right) – an offender who was trying to make a getaway after stealing money from a Henderson dairy was stopped and swiftly arrested. 👏

Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.

He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.

Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.

He was then arrested and taken into custody.

A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.

The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.

A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

5 knot (10km/h) speed limit on Waipu River and 200m out from all shorelines

Jette from Langs Beach - Waipu

An increasing number of people seem to think the Waipu river is a great place to rip up and down on jetskis and waterski, and claim not to know about the speed limits. For those who are unsure, NOBODY should be doing more than 5 knots anywhere within 200m of a shoreline (this includes rivers). … View moreAn increasing number of people seem to think the Waipu river is a great place to rip up and down on jetskis and waterski, and claim not to know about the speed limits. For those who are unsure, NOBODY should be doing more than 5 knots anywhere within 200m of a shoreline (this includes rivers). Jetskis are also required to clearly display a registration number or be liable for an instant fine. If you wish to help educate others and keep our rivers and beaches safe for swimmers and non-motorised craft (as well as preventing erosion), I've attached some screen shots below and here is a link to the full rules: www.nrc.govt.nz...
