Two men are due in the Tauranga District Court today over the murder of 19-year-old Takena Tiepa-Ranapia.

Mr Tiepa Ranapia was discovered dead outside a house in Mansfield Street about two weeks ago.

A 37-year-old and 36-year-old are charged with his murder.

Police say no weapon has yet been found, and detectives want to hear from anyone who found knives, sharp implements, or discarded metal items such as wrenches or bars.
