A man has been arrested and charged with receiving stolen All Blacks vs Lions test tickets.
Police said they believed the tickets were stolen from a letterbox at a Wellington house when they were delivered early last month.
After the man allegedly received the tickets, a family member attempted to sell them on Trade Me, and the incident was then reported to the police.

Wellington Detective Senior Sergeant Warwick McKee thanked the person who alerted police saying without them, they would not have been able to hold the offender to account.
