The cat, the brick and a political protest - New Zealand news on Stuff.co.nz
A brick-wielding protester, a prowling cat and a local woman crossed paths at Prime Minister Helen Clark’s Mt Albert electorate office in the first hour of 2008 - with hair-raising results.
The woman was looking for a neighbour’s lost cat about 12.30am when she saw a scooter pull up and its rider throw a brick at the office window. The window was cracked but not broken.
She approached the scooter to try to get its registration number and was startled by the cat.
When the woman screamed, both the cat and the brick-thrower took fright and left quickly.
A group called People Power has owned up and threatened further protests. It said the brick was thrown to protest against the Electoral Finance Act, which was enacted yesterday. The group wants it repealed.
