Police and retailers in the Waikato are pulling out all the stops to respond to an increasingly violent crime wave.
Four young people have so far been arrested following three burglaries, a home invasion, a car theft, and shots fired at police early on Monday morning.
Another six young people are being tracked down in connection to the offences, and the mayor of Waipā has sped up plans to install security cameras in some town centres.
Tony O'Rourke is the Hamilton manager of a youth organiation called Zeal.
He's spoke to Gyles Beckford.
