Coming just days after three break-ins were reported in the small community, residents came to meet the local police officers and express their concerns for community safety.
Business owner Tom Weyrich, who hosted the event at the Mathoura General Store, also used it as an opportunity to raise the need for a new Mathoura Police Station.
Mr Weyrich has urged Murray River Council to lobby the NSW Government for the upgrades, as he had done when he was a councillor.
Murray River Police District Chief Inspector Michael Fuller was pleased with the turnout.
“We had a lot of conversation and coffee with community members,’ he said.
‘’We thank everyone who attended for the opportunity to chat with them and thank the team at the Mathoura General Store for hosting our event.”
