'We're still looking at how many businesses have been targeted, but it's looking like at least three,” says Alan.

'Speaking to various people, it sounds like the man in the photograph frequents the CBD, so we're just after some nominations as to his identity so that we can go talk to him.”

Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Matt Valentine at the Mount Maunganui station on 07-577-4300, quoting file reference number 160613/1509.

Information can also be provided anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.

I agree with Captain Sensible, the thief is a complete waste of space and should be domiciled permanently On White Island with no handouts.
