If you know where these items are, call police on 0800 Crimestoppers.
Lock it or lose it
Thieves have been preying on cars parked on Fairy Springs Rd at the weekend.
Two cars were broken into on Sunday, one outside Wendy's and the other outside Countdown, and valuables were stolen.
"It's a good reminder to lock your cars and if you have valuables inside, make sure they are not visible."
Suspicious behaviour
Residents on Pohutukawa Dr are again being targeted by burglars.
In recent weeks police had been enjoying fewer burglaries but two have been reported on Pohutukawa Dr, on the eastern side of Rotorua, in the past few days.
"We want to build some resilience with the community and help the public so as soon as they see people casing out properties, please call us."
Good catches
Routine stops made by police have resulted in two arrests.
A vehicle was stopped by frontline at the weekend and found a man who was wanted for an aggravated robbery at a Steeles Ln house in July this year.
Another routine stop on Tania Cres at the weekend resulted in a man being arrested for possessing methamphetamine, possession of a weapon and possession of ammunition.
Mr Nightingale said Rotorua police currently had a few staff members who were on light duties following medical surgeries.
They were being tasked with doing paperwork for frontline staff, which meant there were more staff on the street and available to do checkpoints.
