Ten firearms and a late model Mercedes worth $100,000 have been stolen from a Hawke's Bay property.

The car, a silver 2014 Mercedes Benz E 250 vehicle was taken from the Taradale property over the weekend of July 14 and 15. Also stolen from the address were 10 firearms.

Detective Amy Renall said a team of officers was working on tracking them down. "Someone is going to see that car somewhere. Someone is going to show-off and talk about driving around in this incredibly flash Mercedes," Renall said.

Renall said anyone who sees the car should call 111 or contact Renall at amy.renall@police.govt.nz.

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)
.
