A man died at the scene, an Iwitaua Rd property, about 9pm on Sunday.
A 38-year-old man will appear in the Kaikohe District court on Friday charged with assault.

"Our investigation teams are continuing to work hard to piece together the events of that evening."
Police are not ruling out further charges.
Det Insp Symonds assured the public the incident is isolated.
