Police are assuring people in Lower Hutt they're not looking for anyone else in a homicide inquiry.

Two people have been arrested over the death of local man Adam Watkins.

A 29-year-old man was arrested and charged with being an accessory after the fact of murder on Friday.

Yesterday a 19-year-old woman was arrested - and was charged with murder.

Police say they're not looking for anyone else, but would like to speak with anyone who saw a white Nissan Micra in Taita around 8pm on Thursday.

Four people were in the vehicle when it left Mr Watkins' house on High St - it returned about 20 minutes later.
