Police are still investigating the circumstances of a fatal crash on Te Ngae Rd, Rotorua, on October 2.

"As part of our inquiries, we would like to identify and speak to the occupant/s of a car that was in the area around the time of the crash," the police said

The car is a dark coloured five-door station wagon.

"Unfortunately, we have not been able to obtain a registration number for the car.

"The car was captured on CCTV on Fenton St about 10.50pm and we believe it may have subsequently stopped at the scene of the crash, shortly after 11pm."

If you can help, please get in touch with police via 105 and quote file number 211003/3040.
