A 47-year-old man is set to appear in Manukau District Court today in relation to a Christmas Day death.
On 25 December, police were called to a house in the suburb of Takanini about 12.20am, after reports of disorder and fighting.
A 57-year-old man with critical injuries was found there, and he died a short time later.
Last night, police said a 47-year-old man was arrested and had been charged with assault with a weapon.
More charges were likely as the investigation continued, police said.
