Invercargill Police investigating two gang-related incidents

Invercargill Police are investigating an assault and theft of a motor vehicle from an address on Janet Street yesterday (15 November).

A man from the address was taken to Southland Hospital, where he was treated for injuries.

Police were subsequently notified of a second incident around Ness and Dalrymple Streets, where a vehicle had been rammed.

Following the ramming, an occupant from one of the vehicles struck a second vehicle with a weapon.

The vehicles involved are believed to be a light green Ford Falcon station wagon and a dark blue Subaru station wagon.

Police are following strong lines of enquiry in relation to these two incidents. We believe the incidents are gang-related and that those involved are known to each other.

Police would like to hear from anyone who witnessed these incidents and has not yet spoken to Police.
