  • Releasing a photo of someone police want to speak is usually always a last resort as it can have detrimental effect on any future court action.

  • Wow I got beat up a few weeks ago in Wellington on a railway bridge as I was returning home from work! I couldn’t give a description because they were all in black and had their hood up and there is next to no lighting on the bridge! Seeing this makes me even more worried that this could be the same person and that’s why they attacked me!! Safe to say the police did nothing for me though!

  • That’s a child not a man. Why would a 40 year old woman be near him anyway?

    Nothing of this story makes sense. Definitely misleading.
