Riverton Police seek to identify illegal hunters
Police are investigating reports of illegal hunting in the Rowallen Forest near Tuatapere in mid-June.
In particular,
Police would like to identify the occupants of a black
double-cab ute which entered two isolated residential
properties in the area in the early hours of Saturday 17
June.
The vehicle had a light bar (possibly LED) on the
roof, to provide light for hunting.
At one of the
properties the occupants of the vehicle killed a pet goat
and fired a shot through the door of an outhouse.
It is
believed a rifle of some sort was used.
These
incidents were extremely disturbing for the victims and
Police would appreciate any information which could help us
identify the vehicle and its occupants.
If you have information which could assist, please call Riverton Police on 03 234 7070.
Information can also be provided anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
