Man steals hat from police car

A 29-year-old male factory worker was arrested yesterday afternoon after he was found with 35 cannabis seedlings in the Waihopai Valley, police say.

Constable Michelle Staag, of Blenheim, said the man was arrested for cultivating cannabis. He was due to appear before the Marlborough District Court today.

A 30-year-old unemployed male opened all four doors of an un-attended police patrol car in Blenheim and removed a police cap from within while police were dealing with his associate at 2.10 today, Miss Staag said.

The man was arrested for unlawfully interfering with a motor vehicle at 2.10am, minutes before police arrested his associate, a 42-year-old male contractor who was charged with disorderly behaviour after an incident on Hutcheson Street, Blenheim.

A 31-year-old unemployed Picton woman who allegedly burgled a neighbour's address was arrested at 9.35pm yesterday for burglary and cultivating cannabis.

A 54-year-old unemployed woman was arrested at 7.05pm after hitting her 69-year-old partner over the head with a spade at a Kaikoura address, Miss Staag said. Police arrested her for assault with intent to injure. She is due to appear before the Blenheim District Court today.

A 15-year-old male labourer was arrested for assault and wilful damage, namely four incidents of tagging at 4.50pm. He will appear before the Blenheim Youth Court on February 15.
