Police say they have arrested two people after a homicide last week left a man dead and a woman in hospital.

The two men are aged 24 and 30, police said in a statement, and they have both been charged this morning with murder and attempted murder.

They will appear at Manukau District Court later today.

Eplahame Tu'uheava, 28, was fatally shot while his wife Mele survived a gunshot to her upper body.

She remains in hospital.

Last week gang connections to Mr Tu'uheava were uncovered by 1 NEWS.

Police said at the time they did not believe the attack to be random.
