A DARING BURGLAR
HACKS OPEN DOOR WITH AID OF SLASHER Press Association. DANNEVIRKE, To-day. An unauthorised intruder at the Dannevirke store of the Hawke’s Bay Farmers last evening used a slasher to obtain an entrance, cutting the big door of the main store off its hinges. He then proceeded to investigate the interior of the building. Between £3 and £4 in notes and silver was taken from the office of the produce manager, wherein a former burglar, two or three years ago, went to sleep during his depredations and was arrested by the police. This time, however, the bird had flown. Drawers in other parts of the building had been prized open with an axe, but little else beyond the amount mentioned was taken.
