Sunny Kausha: Dairy and Business Owners Group Chair says we need a solution to ram raids now

Dairy owners fear someone will die as ram raids surge.

There's been a 400 percent increase in the crime in the last five years, with the Police Minister revealing it's happened 129 times since May.

Chris Hipkins has also confirmed almost all of these people are under 18 years old, with the median age being 15.

Dairy and Business Owners Group Chair Sunny Kaushal told Kate Hawkesby we need a solution now.

He says if we don't get on top of this soon, we will create a generation where crime is normalised.
