Tensions rise over campers living at formerly prestigious Auckland golf course | RNZ

A camper living at the abandoned Gulf Harbour Country Club has threatened visitors with a weapon, locals say, but the men camping there say it is them that are being harassed. The property on the Hibiscus Coast was formerly a prestigious golf course and landmark of the area, but has been abandoned and plagued with issues including arson, and a hefty demolition bill owed to Auckland Council. Residents have posted on the neighbourhood Facebook page about two incidents when visitors to the property were threatened. But a man living at the club said this was all part of a vigilante hunt to target him, along with the other campers. Reporter: Luka Forman Video: Nick Monro
