1 min read

Two men have been arrested and charged with burglary following a break-in at a residential property in Napier early this morning.
?
The break-in was reported to Police by a male occupant of the house shortly after midnight. ?
?
After hearing intruders in his home, the man left the property and called Police from a nearby location. ?He also made a neighbour aware of the break-in, and that neighbour followed the intruders from the man’s house to another Napier address and then informed Police of their location.
?
Police recovered a number of electronic items that had been taken during the break-in, and arrested two men and charged them with burglary.
?
“This is a great example of the community being ‘eyes and ears’ for the Police. ?Thanks to the quick-thinking of both the victim and his neighbour, Police were able to quickly identify those responsible and recover the stolen property,” says Senior Sergeant Mike Stevenson.
?
The two men will appear in Napier District Court on Wednesday 14 September.
