Police are aware of an incident concerning a 31-year-old woman who had been boxing at a gym in Wellsford on Saturday 18 August.

She was airlifted to Auckland City Hospital after feeling unwell and was subsequently put on life support.

The woman has been on life support for a number of days and sadly died this morning at 7.45am.

Unfortunately there have been a number of conflicting reports in the media regarding when she died and this has not been helpful.
