Two men have been arrested following an assault in South Auckland that left one man in hospital fighting for his life.
The 31-year-old was assaulted on Naylors Drive in Māngere in the early hours of Saturday. Police were called at 3.50am after neighbours heard screams, shouting and a loud bang.
The man remains in a critical condition, according to Detective Senior Sergeant Albie Alexander of the Counties Manukau CIB.
Alexander said there had been "significant progress" made in the investigation, with two men arrested over the assault.
