Attempted Break In of Cars in Unsworth
Beware there are thieves around the Unsworth Heights neighbourhood at the moment. Last night we had both 4wd’s which were parked on our driveway on Calypso attempted to be broken into. The thief’s threw our solar lights down the yard so that there was not much light near the cars. Lucky they could not get into either vehicle and then triggered one of the alarms and got scared off. This is the fourth time in the last year they have broken/ attempted to break into my Hubby’s truck/ 4wd.
Please ensure your vehicles are locked and nothing valuable is in them.
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)
.
