A person has been taken into custody after allegedly fleeing from police and crashing a stolen car in Māngere East this morning.
Police observed a stolen vehicle driving dangerously on the motorway earlier in the morning, then saw it again on Buckland Rd.
“It fled from Police again and no pursuit was initiated when it crashed at the intersection of Massey Road,” a police spokesperson said.
The driver clipped another vehicle at the intersection of Buckland and Massey roads, colliding with a set of traffic lights before striking another vehicle and coming to a stop.

Right now Kaniva News provides a free, politically independent, bilingual news service for readers around the world that is absolutely unique. We are the largest New Zealand-based Tongan news service, and our stories reach Tongans wherever they are round the world. But as we grow, there are increased demands on Kaniva News for translation into Tongan on our social media accounts and for the costs associated with expansion. We believe it is important for Tongans to have their own voice and for Tongans to preserve their language, customs and heritage. That is something to which we are strongly committed. That’s why we are asking you to consider sponsoring our work and helping to preserve a uniquely Tongan point of view for our readers and listeners.
