Police spent Saturday at a South Auckland shopping mall in the hope they will obtain more information about the killing of a teenager.
John Xavier Andrew Hapeta, 14, known as "John John", was bashed to death by two men outside his home in Justamere Place on Tuesday night. A handgun and a hammer were used.
Police say the attack was not a random one. Descriptions have been issued of two men seen running from the scene. Both are Maori who were wearing black hoodies.
Police have since carried out a number of search warrants and interviewed six people, but no arrests have been made.
A police bus was parked at the Clendon shopping centre all day.
