Three men have been arrested in relation to a serious incident involving a meter reader in Kihikihi in January.
Emergency services were called to Oliver Street on January 5, where a man was found with serious head injuries.
Detective Sergeant Anthony Hodgson says the arrests come after extensive inquiries and some determined investigative work by Te Awamutu Police.
“We are pleased we have been able to provide the family with some relief that those believed responsible have been located and arrested,” says Hodgson.
