Queenstown Police are pleased to have recovered a number of stolen building and power tools in a search warrant today.

A 30-year-old man has been arrested in relation to several burglaries that occurred across the Queenstown area.

Police are now working to identify and return the recovered property to the owner, or owners.

Most of the property that Police recovered today was taken from building sites which serves a timely reminder to construction site workers to secure sites and label their equipment.

Police actively investigate stolen property and endeavour to hold offenders to account but need owners to do their part to prevent theft.

The man arrested following today’s search warrant is due to appear in Queenstown District Court on Monday 5 July on charges of burglary and theft.
