Police seeking motorbike sightings as hunt for Marokopa fugitive Tom Phillips continues

Police are going door-to-door in Waikato as they continue to search for Marokopa fugitive Tom Phillips and his missing children.

Last week, police revealed there were a number of sightings of Phillips driving a ute at three different locations across the Waikato region. He was also spotted shopping at Te Rapa's Bunnings Warehouse.

His three children, Jayda, Maverick, and Ember, weren't seen with him.

A stolen ute Phillips used has been found after a member of the public saw it just off Marokopa Road in Te Anga.

Now, police are looking for historical sightings of the bronze-coloured Toyota Hilux ute, as well as any sightings of a Honda 50cc motocross bike, a black Suzuki 200cc trojan, a Honda XR 200cc, and a Honda 2008 Four Trax Quad.
