Police have charged two men following multiple commercial burglaries in the city last month.
Officers executed search warrants on Tuesday at two residential addresses which resulted in the recovery of some of the stolen items, including property from a commercial burglary in August.
“Two men, aged 40 and 44, arebeing held in police custody pending appearance in the Gisborne District Court on burglary and other dishonesty-related charges,” said Detective Sergeant Brent Griffiths.
“Inquiries are ongoing and further charges are likely.
“This type of offending has far-reaching consequences for our local business owners and third-party victims, causing significant operational disruption and fiscal loss,” Det Sgt Griffiths said.
“If you are a victim of offending, or if you witness any suspicious behaviour, you are urged to contact police on 111 if it’s happening now, or 105 if it’s after the fact.”
