Gang members caught at Auckland border with $100,000 cash - and KFC
Two gang members have been caught by police with $100,000 cash and "car boot-full of KFC" at Auckland's southern border.
Officers yesterday became suspicious of a vehicle travelling on a gravel road and pulling a U-turn before speeding off trying to evade police.
The vehicle eventually pulled over and police discovered they had been travelling from Hamilton trying to get into Auckland, a police spokesperson said.
"The vehicle was searched and police located the cash, alongside empty ounce bags and a large amount of takeaways."
