• What do you think of the police 'child abuse' visit?

The home of a senior Herald journalist was recently paid a visit by three police officers who claimed they were responding to a tip-off from a neighbour regarding possible child abuse.

Police made no apologies for responding to an emergency call to the Titirangi property from a neighbour who told them: "I can hear a child screaming ... and I've heard it before."

The journalist involved, Karyn Scherer, says she can only assume a child's tantrum around bath time prompted the 111 call.
