Police get information about woman
Christchurch detectives are following up information given to .them, by 10 members of the public yesterday about a woman in a leo-pardskin-like coat seen talking to a Waltham pensioner, Mr Alfred Anderson, the day before he was battered to death in his Hastings Street flat.
A team of 17 detectives is still working on the case. They are trying to trace a woman Mr Anderson was seen talking to on June 3, the day before he was killed. She . had mousy hair and was wearing . a three-quarter-length leopardskin coat, probably imitation. Mr Anderson ’ was seen twice that day with the woman by people who knew him. The first time was outside the Papanui Post Office. The second was a short time later a few hundred metres away in the Northlands Mall.
, Anyone who wants to give information to the police in confidence may still do so by writing to a Post Office box number the police took for the inquiry. The address is P.O. Box 1500, Christchurch.
