Poll: Do you have a problem with menacing chickens in your neighbourhood?

Reporter Western Leader

Once seen solely at its rural edges, Auckland's chicken population has begun to take roost across the city. However, people were divided over the rise in poultry stock, particularly when found wantonly crossing the street in Titirangi.

Once seen solely at its rural edges, Auckland's chicken population has begun to take roost across the city. However, people were divided over the rise in poultry stock, particularly when found wantonly crossing the street in Titirangi.

Simon Bradley, a real estate agent with Glovers Real Estate in Titirangi, said while the local colony of chickens were controversial, they added character to local community. While others say that urban chicken's raise issues of noise, smell and fowl that escape and wreak havoc on neighbours' gardens. Is it time for Council to say no to city chickens? What do you think about them - are they are friend or foe?

Waitemata Police are appealing for information after the aggravated robbery of the Royal Heights PostShop in Massey Saturday morning. Just after 9.30am a person entered the PostShop on Royal Rd and pointed a pistol at a female worker before running off with an amount of cash.

Several Good Samaritans gave chase and followed the suspect down a service lane between the Countdown and Mobil service station and out onto Moire Road. One of the Good Samaritans recovered an amount of cash dropped by the offender and returned the money to the PostShop before Police arrived.

Police would like this person to come forward so we can thank him for his assistance and obtain further details about the robbery.

The offender has been described as Maori or Polynesian, medium to solid build, 6 foot tall [182cm] with a distinctive 5cm dark black birthmark or mole on their left cheekbone. The suspect was wearing a grey hooded jacket, dark coloured shorts and black shoes.
