Police said they and Victim Support were providing as much help as possible to his family, and were treating the circumstances surrounding his injuries as suspicious.
At around 8.30pm on April 28, Kimleang fell from a vehicle he was travelling in on Robertson Rd, Māngere, and sustained critical injuries.
This vehicle did not remain at the scene at the time and fled the area, police said.
