Police appeal for information about stolen ATV

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Police are asking to hear from anyone who might have information about a side-by-side motorbike that was stolen from Whakatu, Hastings, sometime overnight between July 26 and 27.

The red and black Polaris Ranger ATV 570, which is the same make and model as the one pictured, was stolen along with a tandem trailer. It belongs to a local elderly couple who use the vehicle to do water, soil and conservation work in the community.

If you have seen a vehicle like this for sale, or have any information that might help, please get in touch.

You can email Senior Constable Pehi Potaka at pehitane.potaka@police.govt.nz (link sends e-mail), contact the Hastings Police Station on 06 873 0500, or give information anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
