Police have arrested a wanted man this morning in relation to a serious assault against two Korean fishermen at the Ti Point Wharf in Rodney at Easter.
Police said the 37-year-old man had been on the run for some time and was actively evading Police.
There were warrants for his arrest on charges of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and injuring with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
Police arrested and charged a 34-year-old man soon after the incident occurred but efforts to find the second alleged offender had been ongoing for several months.
This morning Taumaranui Police received information that he was at a local address.
