Confusion in Mangawhai over Covid-19 alert level

Published: Feb. 15, 2021, 4:29 a.m.

Residents of the Northland town of Mangawhai Heads have had a day of Covid limbo and "absolute confusion" as to what alert level they are at. Eight checkpoints were set up around Auckland's regional boundaries as the alert level 3 restrictions came into effect. But their exact location appeared to expand the super city's limits, and late this afternoon led to a change of plan from police. Jordan Bond reports.
