Police investigating the discovery of a body in Mt Wellington, Auckland over the weekend have arrested a teenager and charged him with assault.
A homicide inquiry was launched after the man's body was found on Hillside Road about 11.30pm on Sunday night.
A 17-year-old man will appear in the Manukau District Court today.
Detective Inspector Dave Lynch said further charges are likely, pending results of a post-mortem examination.
Police believe other people were involved in the incident and are appealing to anyone with knowledge of the case to come forward.
