A pair of people were arrested trying to enter Auckland, New Zealand with three buckets of Kentucky French fries, a large amount of French fries, and NZ $ 100,000 in cash. At that time, Oakland was being locked down due to a new coronavirus infection (COVID-19), and fast food takeout was also prohibited.

New Zealand police announced in a statement on September 20 that police patroling the outskirts of Auckland had arrested a pair of men aged 23 and 30 in a car. At the time of his arrest, Auckland, New Zealand's main city, had a one-month blockade of Level 4, closing all restaurants, including takeaway services, and restricting residents from going out. On the other hand, cities other than Auckland are closed at level 2, restaurants, cafes, bars, night clubs, etc. are open, and residents are also allowed to go out.
At this time, police found a suspicious car on the Auckland city border. When the police approached, the car made a U-turn and tried to escape, but eventually slowed down and stopped. Police searched the car and found three buckets of Kentucky fried chicken, 10 cups of coleslaw, a large amount of french fries, cash, and an empty pouch in the trunk. The duo may be sentenced to up to 6 months' imprisonment or a fine of up to NZ $ 4,000 under the COVID-19 Public Health Act.

A week before the two arrests were announced, a man across Auckland's city border in search of McDonald's posted a video on social media and was arrested and charged. 'In these situations, fast food has a high-value, illicit substance atmosphere,' said The Guardian, a British news media.
In Auckland, when the city blockade dropped from level 4 to level 3 at 23:59 on the 21st, fast food restaurants reopened, and some stores had a drive-through line even at midnight. It is reported that it was. At McDonald's in West Auckland, which reopened at 0:30 am, 40 cars lined up in the drive-through, and the line extended until it turned the corner of the road by 1 am. Also, employees working at Auckland Manukau's Kentucky Fried Chicken have 6-7 cars lined up at 7:30 am, even though the business starts at 9 am, one of which is the driver the day before. He said he had been waiting in the car since 8 pm.
