Two men have been charged with conspiracy to murder after a series of tit-for-tat shootings between the Tribesmen and Killer Beez in Auckland in May 2022.
A police spokesperson confirmed two men, aged 26 and 29, are due to appear in the Manukau District Court on Thursday jointly charged with conspiracy to murder and common assault.
“They have been charged as part of an ongoing investigation into the alleged discharge of firearms towards dwellings in Counties Manukau in May 2022,” the spokesperson said.
