Vandals

Gaewyn Copeland didn't even watch the game from her Mt Albert home and although she knew there was a game happening she never thought she would become embroiled in the aftermath.

Copeland said she was shocked to wake up on Sunday morning and find her humble silver Holden Astra - parked outside her home well away from the game's atmosphere - spray painted with the word "Tonga" after the big game which saw fights break out in several parts of the country including South Auckland.

Marco Island police Capt. David Baer says the vandals also left at least seven pickled pigs' feet on the driveway of Walter Palmer's $1.1 million home. Baer says police have opened an investigation.

A hand-made sign criticizing Palmer was left in the yard last week. A security company has been hired to protect the property.
