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.

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
