The Glen Innes Tactical Crime Units said 28 arrests had been made over the past two months over a string of burglaries around the eastern suburbs of Auckland.
The burglaries included 18 homes and seven commercial sites, and a total of eight search warrants were carried out at various properties.
Among the items recovered during the warrants was a worn black hat with a silver fern on it - which ended up belonging to cricket legend Daniel Vettori.
Vettori captained New Zealand between 2007 and 2011 during his 1997-2015 career.
