Warning known thieves working in the area again.
Hi people!
Last night at 2 am a silver/grey sedan pulled into a friends driveway, his house is being worked on and not occupied at the moment. The occupants of the car proceeded to try get in to his house. I would assume to steal tools and damage the house further.(I own the house next door)
Unfortunately when they woke me and I went out yelling at them and they took off before I could get their rego. I have spoken to the police and they have said they have a good idea who it was. Hint, if you have been in Jenks st over the last year and a bit you should have a good idea who it was too. They are well known round Foxton as a family of thieves and have come back before just to kick in the doors and smash up the house after they were evicted for owing a massive amount of rent, intentionally damaging the property and threatening the owner with the mob if he evict them. These people and their "friends" have broken into 2 houses 3 times in Jenks St over the last year and a bit and last night would have made the 4th time if I didn't have a bone to pick with these .....idiots.
Please keep your eyes on your neighbors houses and if you see this happening show these thieves no mercy, greet them with screaming furry and phone call to the police. Break and entry is not allowed round my neck of these woods! ;)
Have a good Easter and be careful on the road!
Regards.

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