A man who died from injuries when hit by a straddle carrier at Ports of Auckland has saved six lives through organ donation.
Laboom Midnight Dyer, 23, was critically injured when a straddle carrier turned onto its side on August 27.
A straddle carrier is a freight-carrying vehicle that holds its load underneath.
