A suspected serial cattle robbery has been discovered after Police arrested a group of women and men from a tax allotment in Fonongahina.
Police were tipped off while investigating a cattle theft at a nearby Ha’ateiho allotment that the group has allegedly sold stolen cattle.
Police believed the group, four women and three men obviously aged in their 20s and 30s, have stolen four cattle.
