The scene of the fatal shooting of Constable Matthew Hunt in June 2020. Inset, left to right: Eli Bob Sauni Epiha, Natalie Bracken, Constable Matthew Hunt. On June 19, 2020, a dark purple Toyota, driven by Epiha, caught the two constables’ attention and was flagged in the police national intelligence system. The incident unfolded after Epiha, who was driving a Toyota and trying to evade the two officers, crashed into another car in the West Auckland suburb of Massey. The crash injured a member of the public, who had been loading items into the car at the time. As an unarmed Goldfinch exited the police car to approach the crash scene, Epiha opened fire, shooting at him 10 times, Crown prosecutor Alysha McClintock previously said.
