Kawakawa police want to hear from anyone who knows this man who is wanted in connection with alleged vandalism of a sculpture garden.

Kawakawa police want to hear from anyone who knows this man who is wanted in connection with alleged vandalism of a sculpture garden.

Police want to hear from anyone who can identify a group of people who vandalised sculptures at Kawakawa's Amazespace.

The group of at least five men entered the gallery about 11pm last Tuesday, knocking a life-sized shark sculpture off its pedestal and damaging one other artwork.

Amazespace is a sculpture garden covering an entire property across the road from the town's famous Hundertwasser toilets.

It is the brainchild of artist Matthew Nisbet.

Anyone with information about the vandalism can contact Kawakawa police on (09) 404 3150 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
