Waikato Police are asking for the public’s help as the investigation into the murder of 20-year-old Tyreece Te Pairi last month in Hamilton continues.

Emergency services were called to Alexandra Street shortly before midnight on 20 July after an altercation between two groups.

Tyreece was transported to hospital, where he sadly died a short time later.

Detective Senior Sergeant Kristine Clarke says Police are following strong lines of enquiry, and are grateful to the public for their help so far.

“We are now working to gather information around a few specific points, which we’re hoping the public can also help with.

“We would like to hear from anyone who attended a hip-hop event at Cloud 9 Bar on Hood Street, Hamilton, on the evening of 19 July 2025, and has photos or video recorded from the event.

“Police would also like to speak to anyone who may have seen the pictured vehicles in the Hamilton CBD area between 10pm on 19 July and 12.30am on 20 July.

“These are a 2024 blue Mitsubishi Outlander, a 2005 grey Nissan Teana and a 2004 gold Toyota Prius.

“It is believed the vehicles travelled to the Cloud 9 Bar event and the occupants may have information that could greatly help our investigation.”

Waikato Police continue to urge anyone with information relating to the death of Tyreece to make contact with us.

If you can help, please use our 105 service, quoting file number 250720/2896.
