Detective senior sergeant Tania Jellyman says Hendrix Rawiri Jury, 27, has a warrant for his arrest in relation to the shooting.

Police are asking for the public's help to locate him, but warn he's "extremely dangerous" and should not be approached.

Anyone who sees him or knows where he is should immediately call 111, Jellyman said.
