Hamilton Police are appealing for information from the public following a house fire on Knighton Road on Saturday 24 August around 2.30pm.

The investigation team are following strong lines of enquiry and would like to thank members of the public who have provided information to us so far.

Anyone with further information is asked to call 105 or add information by clicking ‘update report’ online: www.police.govt.nz...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
