Kiwis have set up a Givealittle page to raise money for Janak Patel's family following his tragic death.
After Auckland dairy worker Janak Patel was fatally stabbed in Sandringham following a man who stole cash from Rose Cottage Superette in November, over $100,000 has been donated to the family.
Dairy and Business Owners Group chair Sunny Kaushal says that the family is grateful to everyone who donated to the Givealittle fund, and the public support draws attention to crime being out of control.
"This needs to be dealt with with urgency and force, and it starts with admitting we have a problem. The crime is not some academic issue, it impacts real people. So that's what the feeling is across the nation."
