Scott Watson fights for parole, Winston Peters heads to the US, and White House officials push for a Ukraine ceasefire.

Hawke’s Bay police are appealing to the public for information following a serious assault in the Hastings suburb of Flaxmere early Thursday morning.

At around 5.50am, police were called to an address near Dundee Dr where a man was found in a critical condition with injuries “consistent with an assault”, a police spokesman said.

“We are working to piece together what occurred, including identifying those involved.”

A scene guard was put in place after the discovery, and a scene examination commenced Thursday morning.

Police want to hear from anyone who witnessed any suspicious activity in the area of Dundee Dr overnight.
