Helensville Homicide: Two Men Arrested

Two unemployed West Auckland men in their 20's have been arrested and charged with the murder of 32 year-old Lee Ross McMurdo who was found dead at his Helensville home in July last year.

The men, a 24 year-old and a 26 year-old, will appear in the North Shore District Court on Monday.

Detective Inspector Greg Cramer, Waitematä District Field Crime Manager has been leading the 13 month investigation and says the arrests are a satisfying development for his team and the McMurdo family.

“Throughout the investigation the Operation MANU team received enormous support from the residents of Helensville and many other communities beyond and we're very appreciative of that."
