Appeal for sightings of red Holden, Palmerston North
Police investigating the burglary of a business in Palmerston North on Saturday are seeking the public’s assistance locating the vehicle that was stolen from the property.
On Sunday 7 December, Police received a report of burglary that had occurred on Saturday 6 December at a commercial property on Domain Street.
A red 1994 Holden HSV Clubsport, registration: HSV425, that was undergoing restoration was stolen from the address.
Constable Maskery says initial enquiries to locate the vehicle have been unsuccessful and Police are now seeking the public’s assistance.
“The vehicle doesn’t have any of the side windows fitted, including the quarter light windows, and is missing all badges and decals. It has 20-inch spoke wheels and custom brakes and has just had a fresh coat of red paint.
“This is a very distinctive vehicle and I’m sure someone in the community will have seen it,” Constable Maskery says.
If you have seen this stolen vehicle, or have any information that could help us locate it, please contact Police immediately through 105 either online or over the phone, and reference file number: 251208/3820.
