Police have concerns for missing 16-year-old Georgina.
Police are seeking information on the whereabouts of a 16-year-old girl who was due to arrive in Taranaki at the weekend. A post on the Manawatū, Taranaki, Whanganui-Ruapehu Police Facebook page said police were trying to locate a girl by the name of Georgina after she didn t arrive in the region as expected. “Police and her family have concerns for her wellbeing, and we are very keen to know she is okay,” the post read. A police media spokesperson said it was understood she d previously been in Auckland.
High Alert said it is likely the synthetic 4F-MDMB-BICA is responsible for the incidents, which has been implicated in a number of deaths overseas and other harm events in New Zealand. In its warning, High Alert said people may collapse or “drop”, foam at the mouth, or experience temporary paralysis. The effects are often worse if taken at the same time as alcohol and other drugs, if a person is unwell, or experiencing mental distress. Immediate effects of the drug include fast or irregular heartbeat, nausea or vomiting, seizures, loss of consciousness, paranoia, anxiety and panic attacks, drowsiness, difficulty breathing and death, it said.
“Others have been placed on bail conditions, with regular checks. In January, a trio of youths was arrested after 15 Mazda vehicles across the district were stolen and attempts were made to take a further seven and three were interfered with. The vehicles targeted in their alleged spree were all Mazdas and were predominately Demios, Atenzas and Familias, and the majority of the stolen cars were recovered. Haenga said police were working hard to try and stop the trend. However they are aware those involved are a part of a wider group. “These groups appear to be using social media as a tool to publicise what they are doing, and we have been able to identify a few offenders through this, he said.
