Being attacked by an unregistered dog running out of an emergency housing motel was the last straw for retired Rotorua policeman Phil Spackman, who says Rotorua has been trashed . Spackman, a former senior sergeant who spent 35 years in the police and retired in 2000, said he was angry and disappointed about where Rotorua was heading and was concerned where it would end.
