The man pulled into their driveway after the children, put his lights on full-beam, reversed and fled. The mother also believed the same van pulled into their driveway again during the night. Police say they are aware of series of suspicious approaches in the Belmont area and are making inquiries.

What do you tell your children about stranger danger? Have your children been chased or followed by strange cars recently? Let us know in the comments.

This new research clearing up their previous puzzling finding that suggested palm may have been a staple plant food for Rapa Nui's population over several centuries.
.
The name "Easter Island" was given by the island's first recorded European visitor, the Dutch explorer Jacob Roggeveen, who encountered it on Easter Sunday (5 April) in 1722. Roggeveen named it Paasch-Eyland (18th-century Dutch for "Easter Island")
The island's official Spanish name, Isla de Pascua, also means "Easter Island". Chile annexed Easter Island in 1888.
.
The large stone statues, or moai, for which Easter Island is famous, were carved in the period 1100–1680 AD. A total of 887 monolithic stone statues have been inventoried on the island and in museum collections. Although often identified as "Easter Island heads".
