A 24-year-old man has been arrested and charged with multiple serious offences including Murder, Attempted Murder and Dangerous Driving Causing Injury.
He will be appearing in the Waitakere District Court tomorrow.
The investigation into this incident is ongoing and Police are not able to rule out the possibility of further persons being charged.
Our thoughts are with the family of the slain Police officer and we are continuing to ensure they are provided with all possible support.
