A partying 48-year-old woman was arrested after her alleged hijinks over a scanner interrupted police radio communications.
Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond of Dunedin police said they executed a search at a Melbourne St address around 12.30am on Sunday following a night of radio interruption by members of the public using police scanners.
Police successfully applied for and then executed a search warrant at the address, where the woman was at home and partying with friends, he said.
Two scanners were initially handed over without issue – but as police were leaving more radio interference was received.
Police re-entered the property and all party attendees were detained, searched and the property was searched where one further scanner was obtained.
