Wellington Police are appealing for information after a shotgun was fired at a residential complex on Sunday afternoon.

Police were called to the Brooklyn Road property about 3.30pm on 2 November.

While nobody was hit, we believe the incident targeted a specific individual, who suffered moderate injuries fleeing to safety.

It is concerning that an offender has discharged a firearm in a highly populated apartment building and we are aggressively pursuing every lead in order to locate the offender.
It is appalling violence that put a number of people at risk and could have had a very different outcome.

There will be an increased Police presence in the area to provide reassurance and safety to the community.

There will be members of the public who saw the offender or know who they are.
We urge anyone with information that could help the investigation to contact Police via 105 and use the reference number 251102/6491.
You can also report information anonymously to Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.

Greetings -

For the last 8 years, I have organized a social group called "Friday Drink". It now has over 4,100 members and meets at different bars on Fridays. Its goal is to provide copacetic venues to make new friends and hang out with old ones of both sexes. It is not a dating meetup. Most of our members are over 30.

This Friday, we will have our 8th Annual Halloween Party at the Cavern Club on Allen Street off Courtney Place. A great band will play the hottest dance tunes from the 80's and 90's. There will be no cover charge. We will have the cheapest drink specials in Wellington. A $100 bar tab will be awarded to the best costume, although costumes are optional.

If you want more information, please go to www.meetup.com.... You can join our group there if you like (for free) and receive notices of our future events. If you do join and are coming, I'd appreciate your RSVPing. Hope to see you there.

Best wishes - Michael
