  • Use of Force During Fatal Shooting in Tauranga Justified
    Use of force during fatal shooting in Tauranga justified Summary of the Incident On 11 February 2020, Mr Anthony Fane and his brother allegedly committed a double homicide at Omanawa Falls, Tauranga. They were later identified as suspects. At the time, Police believed the murders were motivated by escalating gang tensions in the area. On 13 February 2020, a decision was made that the Tauranga Armed Offenders Squad (AOS) would be deployed on ‘reassurance patrols’, starting that evening. Four AOS officers were deployed on a patrol that evening in two separate vehicles. At approximately 7.45pm they came across a Ford Falcon (‘the Falcon’) registered to Mr Fane, which they believed he was driving at the time. The Falcon was not amongst the vehicles the officers had been briefed on as vehicles of interest connected to the homicides. The officers had received email alerts that the Falcon was in the Bay of Plenty area, and wanted in relation to the double homicide, although there was no indication why. The officers signalled Mr Fane to stop by activating their red and blue lights and sirens, but he continued. A pursuit was initiated and continued for four minutes and 47 seconds, during which Mr Fane fired shots at them on numerous occasions while driving. At one point he stopped directly opposite a retirement home, got out of the Falcon, and fired directly at the officers (who were still in their cars). They did not return fire at this point due to a number of risk factors related to the location, including the number of members of the public in the vicinity.

  • School Children
    Tairāwhiti’s Second World War memories 1: School children By 1940 patriotic activities in the Tairāwhiti area were in full swing, and children had been involved from the very beginning. The children of the Muriwai School got the ball rolling in October 1939 when they decided that they wanted to contribute to patriotic funds by growing potatoes for sale. In this they were supported by their School Committee, who decided to purchase the necessary seed and manure.1 Children sewed and knitted items such as scarves, mittens and balaclavas for the troops throughout the war years. While children at all schools could undertake these handcrafts, some activities were dependant on location. So it was only country children who would have been able to participate in the scheme proposed by Mrs Thompson of Puha whereby sheepfarmers would donate motherless lambs to be reared by school children. It was pointed out that many of these lambs were lost in the course of a Shearing shed, Waimata John Harold (Jack) Hollamby season, but that handfeeding would Collection Tairāwhiti Museum78-7 save them, and at the same time give the children an opportunity to share in the war effort.2 Country children were also able to participate in the collection of ergot, a fungus found in the seed heads of some grasses, which was urgently required in Britain for the manufacture of drugs.3 In November 1941 the Minister of Education issued a statement asking school children to collect all the ergot they can during December and January.4 1 The Gisborne Herald 4 October 1939 2
