A 37-year-old man has been charged with murder after a fatal crash in Auckland.
Police said a vehicle struck the victim on a driveway at Lanham Lane, Massey, on Tuesday evening and left the scene immediately after.
"Sadly, despite the best efforts of ambulance staff at the scene, the victim succumbed to his injuries at the scene," Detective Senior Sergeant Tim Williams of Waitematā CIB said.
Officers found and seized the vehicle at an Avondale address late on Tuesday.

The alleged offender was known to the victim and was arrested in Coromandel.
He is expected to appear in Waitākere District Court today.
"Police are not currently seeking anyone else in connection with the man's death," Williams said.
"While we can't comment on the specifics of what has taken place, I can advise that both men are known to each other."
A scene examination was continuing at the address.
