Please attribute to Detective Inspector Glenn Baldwin, Auckland City CIB:

Police are aware of a number of emailed threats to schools and other institutions across the country today.

At this stage, Police perceive the threats to be low risk.

The Cybercrime team, supported by staff in other Police districts, have initiated an investigation and are working to determine the source of the emails.

If you have any information which could assist our enquiries, please contact Police through 105 online or by phone.

Information can also be provided anonymously via Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.

NOTE FOR MEDIA: Police believe publicity may be a motivating factor behind these continued threats, and therefore we urge caution in reporting.
