A Tongan driver in Auckland, New Zealand woke up this morning to find a tyre and rim on her vehicle had been stolen overnight.

Tupou Vanisi of One Tree Hill said her van was parked on its parking last night but this morning it was left with only three tyres and rims.

Vanisi said she came outside ready to go to work and to drop her children off at school but the incident had changed everything.

The Alford avenue resident said the car was left propped up on a scissor jack.

She said the jack belonged to the alleged stealer.

She could not specify the model and make of her car or brand of tyres.

Vanisi has yet to lodge a complaint with Police.

She said she could offer us no suspects.
