Brooklyn firearms incident

The Team from Wellington District Police

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.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
