January 1, 2020

Two youths were arrested last night after police responding to a call in Hawke’s Bay said a rowdy group threw bottles at them, breaking the window of their patrol vehicle.

Officers were called to a “large disorder” on Harper Road in Waimarama around 10.10pm when they were “confronted by the group”, police said in a media statement.

More arrests are expected as the investigation continues, authorities said.

Anyone with information that could help police has been asked to call 105, or leave a tip anonymously through Crimestoppers at 0800 555 111.
