Police seek sightings of missing fisherman

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A large-scale search for a missing fisherman at Bethells Beach is continuing, with Search and Rescue teams, life guards and the Police helicopter involved in efforts to find him. Korean man Myung Kang went missing at the beach on Saturday January 5th.

The 57-year-old’s white 2011 Toyota Prius has since been found in the Bethells Beach car park.

Detective Senior Sergeant Callum McNeill is urging anyone who may have seen Mr Kang to contact Police.

“Saturday was a hot day and a large number of people took the opportunity to spend some time at Bethells Beach, so we are hopeful that someone has seen Mr Kang with his fishing gear,” he says.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Waitemata Police on 09 839 0697

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
