Police have named the man who died in a Whangārei Gull stabbing on Saturday night.
He was 25-year-old Shayden Perkinson of Raumanga.
The fatal stabbing happened around 9.40pm outside a Gull service station on Tauroa St, Raumanga.
Video supplied to 1News shows what appears to be two people attacking someone before one of the attackers is struck by a vehicle racing through the service station, sending them flying into the air.
Police did not believe the incident was gang-related but haven't released more details of the incident while the investigation is ongoing.
"At this stage, no arrests have been made, however a further update will be provided when we are in a position to do so," Northland District Crime Manager Detective Inspector Dene Begbie said in a statement this afternoon.
Stuff today reported that Perkinson's cousin said he was killed while trying to protect a woman who was being robbed at an ATM.
