Scoop has an Ethical Paywall
K-Road Car Thief Lands In Court
A pair who allegedly stole a vehicle while the driver was collecting a food order will now face Court.
At about 12.25am, Police received a report of a vehicle stolen on Karangahape Road while the driver was busy collecting a meal order.
Senior Sergeant Tony Turner, Auckland City Police, says vigilant camera operators were able to backtrack and trace the vehicle’s movements.
“The vehicle was sighted on New North Road, Morningside and has continued through to Kingsland.
“Police units, supported by the Eagle helicopter, responded quickly and were able to block the vehicle in.”
Senior Sergeant Turner says two occupants were taken into custody.
“This is a great example of staff working hard to hold those responsible to account for this type of crime in our communities.
“It also serves as a reminder that Police and our partner agencies will continue to keep an eye out for suspicious activity, and we will respond accordingly.”
A 41-year-old woman will appear in Auckland District Court today charged with unlawfully taking a motor vehicle and driving with excess breath alcohol.
