A 7-year-old boy from Dunedin has blown a piece of Lego out of his nose, over a year and a half after it went missing.

Sameer Anwar, then aged six, was playing with Lego during the summer of 2018-19 when he started crying and saying he had sniffed a piece up his nose.

His parents, mum Afshan and dad Mudassir, had Sameer blow his nose, but nothing came out. They also couldn’t see anything when they looked into his nostrils.

Then on Saturday, his family was stunned to see the Lego piece come out of Sameer’s nose when he blew his nose. Read more about Sameer's strange tale here.

Kmart will not reopen its Dunedin store anytime soon, and will be replaced in the city’s Meridian Mall by Smiths City.

The Kmart store recently closed in the mall and a spokesperson said on Tuesday they had been unable to find a temporary site as planned. Staff would be redeployed, and otherwise would face redundancy, the spokesperson said. Kmart has been in the city for 23 years.

Smiths City on Tuesday confirmed its move to the site previously occupied by Kmart.

Earlier this year The Warehouse announced it would be closing nine stores across the country, including its Dunedin central store, which will now become a “dark store”, used only for filling online orders.
