Were you affected by tyre slashings over the weekend?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Slashing vehicle tyres is the latest crime wave to hit Whangarei with at least 44 cars hit over two nights.

Vehicles parked on streets were targeted over a large swathe of the city, starting on Friday night.

Whangarei police were inundated with reports on Saturday and Sunday of multiple tyres on each vehicle slashed in a number of streets in Kamo, Tikipunga, Maunu and in Onerahi.

Mostly tyres on the driver's side were targeted.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

noisy dogs

Rob from Central Whangarei

lats get cracking on this topic.
Ignorant, selfish dog "owners" that allow their dogs to bark all bloody night and to hell with neighbors right to reasonable peace and quiet and reluctance of authorities to do anything
