Piri Weepu
All Black Piri Weepu went online to vent his anger after
thieves broke into his car and stole his iPhone while he was
out diving.
Weepu was at Owhiro Bay on Wellington's south coast, diving
for shellfish that was to be served at a funeral, and
returned to find his car window smashed and his phone
missing, he told his followers on Twitter.
"To the f##%#r that broke into my car! Better pray I don't
find you!! Grrrrrrr!!!!" he wrote. "Took my iPhone!! Hope you
see this tweet! Gonna track it boi!"
The phone had photos of his two young daughters - Keira and
Taylor - stored on it.
Weepu said he was working on tracking the iPhone. However,
the thief was yet to turn it on.
The All Black posted a photo of the shattered glass all over
the driver's seat.
He told fans he had done some exercise after the incident, to
help take his mind off what had happened.
"I'm not as pissed [now]. Took my anger out on the street -
ran Wainui Hill lol but still gutted as," he said.
He later wrote: "Don't think it worked - still pissed off."
Two sets of car keys to other vehicles owned by the player
were also taken.
