Counties Manukau police have captured a 19-year-old woman who was on the run after cutting off her ankle bracelet - and had started taunting police on social media.
A police spokeswoman confirmed to the Herald this morning Dayna Paparoa has been arrested and will face a raft of charges, includinggoing back before the courts to face two charges of breaching home detention, a charge of burglary and possibly more to come pending further interviews and investigation.
"She now faces an additional charge of burglary and further charges are likely. She's just being processed and that's all we can say at the moment," a police spokeswoman told the Herald.
On March 10, Police wrote on Facebook that they were looking for Paparoa. But it was unlikely they expected what happened next - a comment from Paparoa, stating: 'You not doing your jobs properly my bros hahahah'.
Police replied, writing: 'Hi Dayna Paparoa, if you want to make it easier for us, why don't you pop into a Police Station and we can sort out your breach. Thanks'.
But the wanted woman had other ideas, writing a post that implied she was going to smoke cannabis first.
Hundred of comments were left on the post, many of which Paparoa replied to.
