Hawke’s Bay Police are investigating the death of a man overnight in Flaxmere.
Emergency services were called to the Flax Bar and Eatery (also known as the Flaxmere Tavern) on Swansea Road at 10.45pm last night, after a man was found outside the tavern with serious injuries.
The man was unresponsive when emergency services arrived and attempts to revive him were unsuccessful.
