Fi talks through a recent arrest following an alleged retail theft spree, with thousands of dollars worth of property believed to have been stolen. She explains the impact retail crime has on local businesses and why reporting suspicious activity remains so important.

It’s also been a busy week on the roads. Fi discusses several drink-driving incidents, dangerous driving around the Upper Clutha, a concerning near-miss on the Wānaka-Luggate Highway, and an alleged road-rage incident near Cinema Paradiso.

Plus, with winter conditions continuing, Fi has a reminder for drivers to slow down, drive to the conditions and give themselves plenty of space.
