Police have now charged a man in relation to a homicide in Ōtāhuhu on Sunday night.

Emergency services were called to a Beatty Street property at about 8.30pm following a report of a person being seriously injured.

A man was transported to hospital but later died of his injuries.

Detective Inspector Karen Bright, of Counties Manukau CIB, says a man was taken into custody yesterday afternoon and Police are not seeking anyone else in relation to the investigation.

“A 31-year-old man has been charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and will appear in Manukau District Court today.

“This is a great result and Police haven’t ruled out the possibility of further charges.”

Detective Inspector Bright says the investigation remains ongoing and thanked those who had come forward to speak with Police.

As the matter is before the Court, Police are limited in providing further comment.
