A brutal stabbing on a quiet central Auckland walkway has shaken the Mount Albert community.
Police have launched a manhunt for a 22-year-old after a man was found dead in Roy Clements Treeway on Tuesday night.
The wanted man is known to frequent Sandringham and West Auckland, is considered dangerous and should not be approached.
National list-MP based in Mount Albert Melissa Lee told Heather du Plessis-Allan this is an unusual tragedy for her electorate.
“Quite shocking for the community actually, and I’ve been trying to gauge how they’re actually coping with it. Many people are concerned that it’s actually happened in their own backyard.”
