A caravan has been stolen from Petone with a man still inside, police say.
The man, who was sleeping in the van, got a rude awakening when he realised he was on the move.
He contacted police just after midnight.
"This then gave police the inside word on the caravan's
exact movements, as the man was able to update police on exactly where he was going," police said.
The ute towed the caravan for what is believed to be about 6km from Petone, over the Wainuiomata hill, where police stopped it.
