24.01.2022 Police are again appealing for public assistance to locate a man missing from the state’s Central Coast. Mr Dusan Dimich, aged 81, was last seen leaving a shopp...ing complex on Railway Street, Woy Woy, about 9.30am on Monday 2 November 2020. Family members contacted police later that day and officers from Brisbane Water Police District commenced inquiries into his whereabouts. Police are investigating reports that Mr Dimich was sighted at Woy Woy train station and the Sydney CBD later that morning, and tracked to Hornsby Train Station that afternoon, coming from Central Station. He has not been seen since. Police and family members hold grave concerns for his welfare due to his age and medical conditions.

22.01.2022 Shared with permission from the Berowra Community group: Be careful when having parcels delivered. Today we had a content of the delivery package stolen from ou...r front porch. The Australia post texted saying the parcel will be delivered today and if no one is home, it will be taken to the post office. Instead they left it on our front porch. When I noticed an hour later that the parcel is on our front porch, I realised that was cut open and the box was empty. I reported it to the police but they said they can’t do much as we don’t have security cameras. We will be following up with Australia post and really hope that we can get our money back as what was meant to be inside of the package wasn’t cheap Edit I have also lodged a complaint with Australia post.
