Boys on Dunedin school roof prompts 'Spiderman' callout
Police deployed their own super hero after an unusual Dunedin callout.
The unnamed officer was dubbed "Spiderman" for his agility in climbing the roof of Logan Park High School on Wednesday, about 7pm, Senior Sergeant Craig Dinnissen said.
While on the roof he chased three teenage offenders, who had been spotted acting suspiciously.
"They were actively avoiding police," Dinnissen said of the trio.
The uniformed crime fighter managed to track down the boys, aged 13, 14 and 15.
No items were taken and no damage was reported at the school, and it was unclear what the boys' motives were, he said.
