Suspicious activity in our neighborhood
Dear Neighbours,
At our home on Sunday morning, an unidentified person was captured by our security camera approaching our open front door, looking inside, and subsequently walking around the side of the house. Upon being questioned, they said they were looking for an individual not known to us and left without further enquiry. They were carrying a black case, had a rug over one shoulder, had a back pack, and wore a cap and sunglasses. See photo.
We have not experienced any harm, but as a precaution, we’ve reported the occurrence to the police.
If you have had a similar encounter or have any information, please do get in touch.
Stay safe. Warm regards,
Paul
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)
.
