Body found in North Shore mall carpark

3.42pm

Police are investigating the discovery of a body in a mall carpark on Auckland's North Shore early today.

The body was found by a pedestrian in the Glenfield Mall around 12.30am, Takapuna CIB head Detective Senior Sergeant Gary Davey told NZPA.

"We're currently investigating the death...it's a little too early to say (if the death was suspicious)."

He would not divulge details of the age or sex of the person.

There was an initial indication of how they died, but Mr Davey said he did not want to speculate on that until it had been confirmed by a post-mortem examination.
