A fourth teenager has been arrested by police investigating two attacks over the weekend, including one where a man was beaten almost to death and left lying in an Auckland reserve.
A 17-year-old has been charged with wounding a security guard with intent to cause him grievous bodily harm.
The guard was attacked shortly after the brutal assault on a 37-year-old man in the Maybury Reserve in Glen Innes overnight on Saturday.
Three teenagers, aged 19, 17 and 14, were arrested on Tuesday and jointly charged with common assault.
All four are due to appear in Auckland Youth Court today.
The victim of the Maybury Reserve attack remained in a critical condition in Auckland Hospital yesterday.
