    An NZ Post worker has been sentenced for stealing thousands of dollars worth of parcels

    An NZ Post worker has been sentenced for stealing thousands of dollars worth of parcels


    Open Justice reports Elijah Kerr was charged for over taking three-thousand dollars worth of Michael Hill watches, and a pet hairbrush, while sorting packages at the Blenheim depot.

    The 19-year-old also admitted to taking items from another 10 packages, including custom-made jewellery.

    He's been sentenced to two months community detention, community work, and will repay 17-hundred dollars.

    Kerr told the court it was the dumbest decision of his life.
