Locals in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland are rallying around the families of the two men shot dead in the city's CBD last week.

Solomona Tootoo from Manurewa, and Tupuga Sipiliano, from Wattle Downs, were both workers at the construction site where their colleague Matu Reid opened fire.

Both men who died were in their forties, and their friends and whanau are devastated.

Manurewa local board chair Glenn Murphy spoke to Corin Dann.
