The number to call has changed since yesterday and anyone with information is asked to call the investigation team on 09 302 6558. Information can also be given anonymously to the organisation Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
“CCTV footage taken from residential and business cameras in the area is being reviewed but at this stage there is no photo or footage available of the car that the man used in the attack.
