An appeal for information on boy racer activity has been backed by the Mayor of Invercargill, who says he’s seen the damage first-hand.
It follows an incident on the weekend where Police responded to a gathering of around 50 vehicles on the outskirts of the city.
Prior to Police arrival, the group shifted to Lorne Dacre Rd where a vehicle crashed into bystanders just before midnight, injuring two people.
On Thursday, Southland road policing manager Blair Shirley urged members of the public to report boy racer activity in the hope it would help disrupt the behaviour.
