A man has been arrested in relation to a vicious assault on an elderly woman at an Auckland rest home on Friday.
Police have been looking for Rangi Joseph Harris, 45, since Friday, after a 75-year-old woman was attacked at a Botany resthome.
The woman was punched, kicked and stomped on, police said.
Harris was arrested a short time ago at a Papatoetoe house, and will be charged with wounding to intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
