Police have searched a third property and seized a vehicle as they continue a homicide investigation into the death of Tony Waldron
The 29-year-old dairy farm worker and father of two was found with injuries at a Gardiner's Road property in Rakaia on Wednesday 18 September.
He died at the scene.
Detective Senior Sergeant Richard Quested said police are making good progress and following strong lines of inquiry.
A scene examination at a second Gardiner’s Road property in Rakaia has been completed and the focus of the search has now moved to the Rakaia river bed.
