Photo: Peter DowdenA joyride in a Kiwirail truck, a burglary at a Nood furniture store and a spate of car break-ins may all be part of the same Sunday morning crime spree, Dunedin police say. One of those men was wearing a balaclava and a T-shirt with three words on it and police were eager for any sightings of the group, Snr Sgt Dinnissen said. Across town, a Kiwirail truck was taken for a joyride before it was driven into a fence next to the railway lines under the Jetty St overbridge. There was a ''good chance'' this break-in was linked to the joyride as the truck was crashed nearby, he said.
