Investigation continues: Police seek footage of night market assaults
Police are seeking additional footage as part of the investigation into an alleged stabbing at the Pakuranga Night Markets.
“We are aware a number of people filmed the violent assault taking place on Saturday evening,” Counties Manukau East Area Investigations Manager, Detective Senior Sergeant Dean Batey, says.
Counties Manukau Police charged a 23-year-old man over the incident, who has been remanded in custody to reappear in court next month. “While we are not seeking anyone else in connection with the incident, this footage will be beneficial as part of the prosecution phase.”
Please contact the Police if you have footage to provide.
You can update the Police online now or call 105 using the reference number 250621/0744.
