Attribute to Inspector Jason Edwards, Waitematā West Area Commander:
Police will be visible in Waitematā West to monitor movements of gang members today.
This is in relation to a funeral taking place in Henderson this afternoon, and Police will be ensuring that our expectations on the behaviour of those attending are met.
Those movements are expected to take place between Henderson and Glen Eden.
A range of Police staff will be deployed across this area, recording any instances of unlawful behaviour.
Our expectations are very clear in these sorts of events, and we have zero tolerance for poor behaviour.
Where those participants chose to employ poor driving or general behaviour, they can expect follow up enforcement action.
Our aim is for the least amount of disruption to the public today.
We encourage the public to report any instances of unlawful activity on the road to us, so we can take appropriate action.
Please contact 111 if it is happening now, or report other matters to Police by calling 105 or going online to https://www.police.govt.nz/use-105
ENDS.
Anna Thompson/NZ Police
