Public warned after suspicious man at Mauao
There were reports of a man suspiciously on the summit of Mauao at Mt Maunganui this week.
Two women were at the summit on Wednesday between 7.30 and 8pm when a man began taking pictures of them on his cellphone, then followed them down the track.
Police received a report on the incident on Thursday morning and were making inquiries.
Senior Sergeant Mike Membery encouraged anyone who has experienced something similar on the mountain on Wednesday night to contact police.
"Police encourage anyone who is ever concerned for their own, or others, safety to contact us immediately," he said in a statement.
"Even if the thing you witnessed is no longer happening, please still call your local station and pass on your information, it could be useful to police in the future."
