Waikato police investigating how a Ngatea woman suffered life-threatening injuries in Te Awamutu over the weekend are appealing for information from the public.
Waikato CIB rural supervisor Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Whitehead said 19-year-old Ashleigh Maree Hollister, from Ngatea, 23km southwest of Thames, remained in Waikato Hospital's intensive care unit in
an induced coma today. Her condition was described as critical.
Mr Whitehead said the inquiry was focused on accounting for her activities from late Friday through to when she was picked up by an ambulance at 5.20am Saturday.
"We're talking to and accounting for everyone she had contact with over this period and have established she was at the Ale House, on Arawata St, from late Friday night until about 2am."
"She then went to an address in Swarbrick Drive where she was staying for the weekend before leaving there to walk to an address in Albert Park Drive."
Mr Whitehead asked that anyone who may have information that might assist the case to contact Te Awamutu police.
