Targeted: @ Tony's Riccarton Japanese Restaurant Hit With Graffiti

Bernard Wong was shocked. On coming to work yesterday, he found the glass frontage to his and co-owner Tony’s business, had been smeared in thick red graffiti. This was a first of its kind in their 25-years on Riccarton Road. It came after thieves burgled their premises in April last year, stealing cash.

Bernard believes the downtown Riccarton area has deteriorated over that time and concerned by the Riccarton bus exchange.

It was only Tuesday that Mayor Phil Mauger told a gathering of residents groups that a new Policing team would have a presence at the exchange.
