Another arrest over burglary ring
Police have arrested another person in relation to an operation targeting a crime
ring involved in dishonesty offending.
The 30-year-old man was arrested in Auckland early on Sunday morning.
He will be appearing in the Auckland District Court today on charges of arson,
unlawfully taking a motor vehicle, burglary (x 3) and theft of a motor vehicle (x 4).
Two weeks ago police located a large amount of stolen property and more than 300
cannabis plants when they searched five addresses around the Whangärei area.
The searches were part of an operation targeting a group believed to be involved in an organised burglary ring involving residential properties and vehicles.
