Investigators are still working on holding all those involved in the violent murder of Kyle Whorrall at an Auckland bus stop to account.

Kyle, a 33-year-old US national, was tragically killed in St Johns on 19 April 2025 during Easter Weekend.

Two people remain before the court after being arrested by the Operation Aberfeldy investigation team in late April.

On Wednesday a renewed appeal is being issued to the public.

“It’s time to do the right thing,” Detective Inspector Glenn Baldwin, of Auckland City CIB says.

“We know there were others in the vehicle that night, and I’m asking people with that information to come forward now.”

A 16-year-old male remains before the Auckland High Court, charged with Kyle’s murder.

Meanwhile, a 33-year-old woman is before the Auckland District Court on two charges of being an accessory after the fact for murder.

Detective Inspector Baldwin says Operation Aberfeldy’s work continues.

“This is still very much an active investigation, and we are very interested in speaking to anyone with information that can assist.

“No piece of information is too small.

“There are people in the community that know exactly who was involved, and what happened. They need to do the right thing and speak up.”

Anyone with information can contact Police in confidence, attend your local Police station, update us online now, or call 105.

Please use the reference number 250419/9858.

People can also contact Crime Stoppers anonymously by calling 0800 555 111.
