The dumping of domestic rubbish on a Dannevirke property has upset a 94-year-old owner who says it has violated his privacy.
The unwanted items were dumped beside the driveway, just metres from the road, at Norm Wylie’s Dannevirke property, and included a freezer, an old water heater, vacuum cleaners, a gas bottle and other assorted items.
Wylie said he found the items some time around lunchtime last Tuesday, and believed they had been dumped within the space of half an hour or so, as he’d gone out earlier and they weren’t there.

He has no idea why the unwanted items were left on his property.
