A man has been charged with attempted murder after police allege he intentionally crashed a vehicle he was driving in South Auckland.
His female passenger sustained “multiple serious injuries” after the vehicle ploughed into a parked truck on Adams Rd in Manurewa on August 3.
“Our investigation team has been working round the clock to piece together the events leading up to and surrounding this incident,” Detective Inspector Shaun Vickers said.
“We’re pleased to finally hold this person to account for this terrible crime.”
The woman, who was known to the man, has since been discharged from hospital and is continuing to recover from her injuries.
A 24-year-old man is due in the Manukau District Court tomorrow charged with attempted murder.
