A young Whanganui man is stuck for transport after his car was stolen overnight from Castlecliff then trashed and dumped on the North Mole.
Steve Austin said his 19-year-old son, Caleb, had parked his Honda Civic outside the family home in Kotuku St on Monday night.
"The police knocked on our door at 6.15am [on Tuesday] to say Caleb's car had been found on the rocks at the North Mole," Mr Austin said.
"We think it was probably taken about 3am. The steering lock had been broken.
"I don't think it will be able to get back on the road because the floor is all bent and they had put a rock on the accelerator so I would say the motor has seized.
