Two people wanted over the fatal shooting in the Auckland suburb of Mount Roskill have been on the run for nearly a week.
Police launched a homicide investigation after two people entered a property on Glass Road, one armed with a gun and the other with a machete on the evening of 23 December.
An altercation then took place, during which the victim, Brian James, 23, was shot dead.
Two other people - a man in his 30s and a man in his 50s - received serious injuries to their arms from the machete and were taken to hospital in a stable condition. The fourth person at the address was uninjured.
The offenders fled the scene and are still on the run.
