Police were concerned about the owner of a bike left near Lake Ōhau in the South Island for several days, but have since identified the owner.
The bike had been at the Temple Campsite shelter off Lake Ohau Road since at least 27 December, according to police.

Otago coastal search and rescue coordinator Sergeant Matt Sheat earlier said the bike may have been left by a tramper or climber.
“Our concern is that the owner may be overdue from a trip or have got into trouble in the area, and we want to hear from the bike’s owner, or anyone who may know who it belongs to,” Sheat said.
Later on Saturday, police said they had identified the owner and were no longer seeking information.
