Police can advise that a group of local Iwi have placed down a rāhui on parts of Parua Bay, in Whangārei Heads.
The rāhui is in place following a single-vehicle crash near Wharf Road, at 9.55am today. Sadly, one person died at the scene.
It will remain in place for three days, starting today, and extends from the wharf at Wharf Rd across to Solomons Point.
Police thank the public for their compassion and understanding at this difficult time.
