Two men have been charged with the murder of Te Kuiti man Anthony Takrouna Bell in Ōtorohanga last Saturday.
The two Hamilton men, aged 30 and 38, are due to appear in Hamilton District Court on Friday over the incident, in which Bell was the victim of an alleged road rage attack.
"We hope the arrests today provides Mr Bell’s family with some degree of comfort following what has been an extremely difficult time for them," police said in a statement.
"We want to thank all of the people who came forward with information and the Ōtorohanga community for their cooperation during this investigation."
Investigators are continuing to make enquiries, and police would like to hear from anyone who might have any footage of the altercation on Maniapoto Street in Ōtorohanga on Saturday night.
Police would also like to hear from anyone with dash cam footage who was travelling between Te Awamutu and Ōtorohanga between 5pm and 6.20pm on Saturday.
