Attribute to Clutha Area Response Manager, Senior Sergeant Robin Hutton:

Police investigating after a person was struck by a vehicle in Balclutha last month are appealing to the public for information.

On Sunday 17 May, around 2am, Police responded to Clyde Street, near Lanark Street, after reports that a large group was fighting and vehicles were doing burnouts.

Police can now confirm the name of the man who sadly died following a crash on Pakuranga Road, Howick on 26 May.

He was Tyler Halliday, 21, of Auckland.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends during this incredibly difficult time.

Enquiries into the circumstances of the crash are ongoing.

ENDS.
