Latest Canterbury news at starnews.co.nz Taggers identified TWO 14-YEAR-OLDS who spray-painted graffiti on a wall at Rolleston in broad daylight have been identified and dealt with by police. The incident was photographed by a resident and appeared in last week’s Selwyn Times. Police said the pair had been referred to Youth Aid and they had carried out community work. The incident is among increasing vandalism and other crimes being carried out in the district by teenagers, which is concerning residents. It includes the tagging of a family home in Prebbleton, ram raids, dairy robberies and cars being stolen. Last week Mayor Sam Broughton told the Selwyn Times he would be meeting with police to discuss the crime issue. He would be asking about any issues or trends police were facing, and see if the district council might be able to offer support. TWO PREMISES sold alcohol to a 16-year-old in a controlled purchase operation involving the police and chief licensing inspector. Chief licensing inspector Malcolm Johnston reported This week Broughton would not discuss the issues or trends, saying it was “a question for the police”. “We meet with the police on a regular basis to understand the areas in which they are concentrating their efforts,” he said in an emailed response. “As a council we support their role by providing community services that meet our communities needs. For young people that means providing safe and well resourced facilities and activities to allow them to participate in community life. “This develops a sense of belonging and discourages them from taking part in activity that damages our communities. We are also heavily engaged in programmes and initiatives to develop opportunities for young people helping them achieve and succeed in their ambitions.” Alcohol sold to 16-year-old – twice to district councillors at their fortnightly meeting last week that two volunteers were used by police to carry out the checks, on the evening of July 1. “A tavern and a bottle store both sold alcohol to a 16-yearold. Neither asked for identification,” Johnston said. Enforcement action was now being taken, and the cases would be referred to the Alcohol Regulatory Licensing Authority. • By Susan Sandys Wednesday September 21 2022 Selwyn Times NEWS 7 Good Samaritan helps mum after Maddie crashes into creek A MORNING bicycle ride ended with a frightening plunge into a creek for a Lincoln three-yearold. Maddie Gilmour (right) was with her mum Holly Porter in Prebbleton Domain on Thursday, pedaling on her new bike when she became distracted by a dog and jogger running past. “She loves dogs,” Porter explained. “The dog ran past and she was: ‘I’m going to catch the dog’.” Enthusiastically chasing the canine, Maddie inadvertently turned her bicycle, which she got for her birthday three days earlier, into the nearby creek. She flipped head first over the front wheels, becoming completely submerged. Porter jumped in to the shin deep water and grabbed her daughter out. The jogger also stopped to help and hauled Maddie’s bicycle out of the creek. Porter replaced some of the cold and crying pre-schooler’s wet clothes with her own dry hoodie. She said she was grateful to the jogger who insisted on carrying Maddie’s bike back to her vehicle, while she carried Maddie. Her car was a two-minute walk away, and she did not know how she would have got the bicycle back without the jogger’s help. Porter posted on social media to thank the jogger, whom she had never met before and did not get their name. The jogger, Jodene Fabian, responded and said: “So glad I was there to help, hope she has recovered.” Her dog is a border collie golden retriever-cross named Koda. Porter told the Selwyn Times Maddie had indeed recovered. “When we got home after the ordeal, she had a nice hot Milo and then wanted to get back on her bike again, so we went for another bike ride.” Come and meet me at the Robert Harris Café in Rolleston on Friday 9th, 16th, 23rd & 30th September 4pm to 6pm • Our cOmmunity grOwth • Our cOmmunity vOice • the perfOrming arts Malvern Writers’ Cafe invites you to a two-hour creative writing workshop with award winning writer Heather McQuillan Saturday 1st October 10am-12pm at Darfield Library In this workshop Heather will cover setting, time and place: “We will uncover the ways writers evoke time and place to ground their story and provide leaping off points for characters.
