Fisherman's death at Bethells 'avoidable' if he'd worn a lifejacket
Kia ora neighbours, a coroner has warned a lifejacket could be “the difference between life and death” after a fisherman drowned at Bethells Beach in 2019.
Myung Kang, 57, went missing on January 5, 2019. His body was found by a member of the public at Woodhill Forest Beach, near Muriwai, almost a week later.
A coroner’s report has revealed Kang, who lived on the North Shore, had not been wearing a lifejacket while fishing from the rocks.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
