Four people found shot on Thursday are believed to have driven injured along dark country roads for kilometres in rural Waikato in a desperate bid to find medical help.
The police say one person died of their wounds, and three others were airlifted to hospital with moderate injuries.
They're all believed to have been shot, sometime before 4am in a rural settlement near Kawhia on the west coast of the North Island.
The locals are trying to piece together exactly what happened in their community.
