Police investigating a firearms incident in Kamo last month are following positive lines of enquiry and continuing to appeal for sightings of a white vehicle believed to be involved.
A house on Brunner Terrace was the subject of a drive-by shooting at around 6.30pm on the 7th of May 2021.
Earlier that day, a White Toyota Hiace Van was stolen from Pataua North. This is a vehicle of interest and is believed to be involved in the shooting.
Police are urging anyone who may have seen the van on that day to contact Police.
“We believe there are some people out there with information about this vehicle and who was driving it prior to the shooting.”
Police have reason to believe those responsible may have since left the Whangarei area.
“We urge these people to do the right thing and contact Police on 105, quoting file number 210511/0805.
You can also contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
