A taxi driver has been charged with causing the death of a father of four in central Auckland earlier this year.
Daniel (Dann) Kopa, 34, was hit by a car on Hobson St just before 9am on June 6.
The young father of four was rushed to hospital in a critical condition but died after his life support was turned off two days later.
A 25-year-old taxi driver has been charged with operating a vehicle carelessly and causing the death of Kopa.
He was due to appear in the Auckland District Court today.
