Police are appealing to the public to help them identify a young man seriously injured in a crash on Wednesday night in Weymouth, south Auckland.
The male was transported to hospital in a critical condition after the motorcycle he was riding crashed into a vehicle on Damian Way at around 11pm, police say.
The man's identity remains a mystery and police are now seeking information from the public.
"The male is described as being of Maori or Pacific Island ethnicity, with an approximate age between 17 and 22 years old," police say.
"He is slim build with short black facial hair around the chin and top lip. He is between five feet eight inches and six feet tall. He has short black hair and a faint mole above his left eyebrow.
"The male was wearing a black top with a Kathmandu puffer jacket, which is black on the outside and bright red on the inside. He was also wearing black Nike trackpants and grey Nike shoes, which have a red coloured-tick on the side and are size 10."
It's hoped his Nike shoes will help someone identify him.
"Police are wanting to hear from anyone who knows a male who matches the above description who they haven't been able to contact since 11pm last night.
"Anyone with any information around the possible identity of this male is urged to contact Police on 105, quoting file number 211223/0593."
