Four men have been arrested, accused of a New Year's Day altercation at the Manukau Velodrome carpark in South Auckland that resulted in the death of a 21-year-old.
A 28-year-old from Ōtara, a 22-year-old Māngere East resident and a 22-year-old from Māngere have all been charged with injuring Joseph Tauati with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
If convicted, each man could face up to 10 years' prison.
They were set to appear at Manuakau District Court for the first time today along with a 31-year-old Ōtara man who was charged with assaulting Tauati. That charge carries a maximum sentence of up to one year in jail.
