As Alexandra residents wake to another cold morning, a silent figure slips into the mist. They leave no trace - except for another bottle of flavoured milk dumped at a local petrol station.
Members of the small South Island community have noticed a strange recurring phenomenon. Every few days, flavoured milk is left on top of a particular pump at the self-service RD Petroleum station. The strange happenings have been going on for months, leaving locals more baffled by the day.
The identity of the mysterious milk enthusiast remains unknown, as does their motive.
Sometimes they leave behind a sole bottle, while other instances have seen as many as six bottles appear at once. The person seems to have been non-partisan in their choice of flavours, leaving behind evidence of their indulgence in chocolate, banana, strawberry and coffee.

Sounds like something a $30 webcam can solve.
Haha yes, I did wonder how it could go on for months without anyone thinking to put up a camera. I’d guess there is probably already a camera, it’s just the company hasn’t responded yet (and might not want to).
Update: CCTV sheds light on mystery milk bottles appearing at Alexandra petrol station
They’ve looked at the CCTV footage:
“The main culprit, I believe, is a delivery driver. So he rocks up early in the morning, and later in the evening … and gets his diesel and leaves his two bottles on top of the pump.”
It sounds like they spotted multiple people at different times in the footage they reviewed, like it was known to be a thing so now all sorts of people are going down and adding their half drunk flavoured milk.
