EXPLOSIVES STOLEN
MAGAZINE AT NAPIER ANXIETY OF RESIDENTS NAPIER, Dec. 29. The theft of a quantity of explosives from the Napier Harbour Board’s magazine is giving rise to anxiety among property owners and residents of Hawke’s Bay among whom the theft has become known. Whether the removal of the explosives was carried out with criminal intent, or merely as an act of mischief, there is a real potential danger in the explosives being in unauthorised hands, and children are being warned against picking up abandoned parcels. A careful search of all likely places for the disposal of the explosives has been made without success.
