A man who allegedly attempted to murder another man by shooting him has had his trial date set.
Haukino Paora Halliday Walters, 21, of Kawakawa, first appeared in the Kaikohe District Court in April charged with one charge of attempted murder, one charge of intent to cause grievous bodily harm,
one charge of possession of methamphetamine and one charge of possession of ammunition.
The offending is alleged to have occurred at a location between Kawakawa and Paihia on the evening of April 23, 2023.
Walters’ charges were transferred to the Whangārei High Court and a trial date was originally set for August 4, 2025, which Justice Timothy Brewer said was too far out.
