1 min read

A pig hunter has been reported missing in the Wairarapa.

Police were alerted just after 7 o’clock this evening.

Two men were hunting earlier today and became separated when one of them started chasing a pig.

The hunter who stayed behind called Police when he was unable to find his mate.

Police and search and rescue volunteers will now assemble and search for the missing hunter, who is wearing light clothing and gumboots.
