Dunedin homicide investigation: Appeal for photos, videos
Police investigating the death of a man in North Dunedin believe motorists or pedestrians may have evidence that can assist in our investigation.
The 36-year-old victim was located deceased at a North Dunedin property on Great King Street at around 2pm on Friday 3 October.
Southern District Criminal Investigations Manager Detective Inspector Shona Low says a 25-year-old man has been remanded in custody and is due to reappear in Dunedin District Court on 21 October.
"During this time of day Great King Street, known to many as 'the one way north', is busy with cars and pedestrians, and we believe there is critical information that was recorded on dashcams, CCTV, or general photos and videos.
We are appealing to anyone who was on Great King Street, between Union Street West and
David Street between 5am and 2.30pm on Friday, with a specific focus around 11am."
"We believe there is crucial information on any dascham, CCTV, or general photos and videos that were taken in this area, and we would like to hear from the public as soon as possible."
Police have created a dedicated web portal where people can upload photos or footage that was taken between 5am and 2.30pm on Friday 3 October in the Great King Street area.
Footage can be uploaded here.
Information can also be provided online through 105 online or via phone, or anonymously through Crime Stoppers on 0800 555 111.
Please use the reference number 251003/5165.

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
