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.
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
40.3% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
57.8% No, I enjoy it
-
1.9% Other - I'll share below
