A 32-year-old man was arrested in Papakura on Thursday night and was due to appear in Manukau District Court today, police said.

Police would still like to hear from anyone who was travelling on Hampton Downs Rd between 10pm on Sunday, October 13, and 1am on October 14, particularly if they have dashcam footage.
