Know your neighbours
Police are noticing a group of offenders operating within Wellington city. These offenders are tailgating residents into their buildings that have some form of controlled access, and then go on to commit crime once inside.
To prevent you, or your neighbours, becoming victims of crime please do the following:
Ensure doors are closed behind you once you have entered.
Question an unknown person’s authority for entry i.e. ask them to show their access/swipe card for the building.
Clear letter boxes
Arrange for a secure area for Courier packages to be dropped off
Police encourage residents to call us right away if they notice any suspicious people hanging around their properties.
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)
.
