A seventh person has been arrested in the investigation into the fatal stabbing of Kaea Karauria, with potentially more to come.

The much-loved 15-year-old died in the early hours of Mother’s Day this year from stab wounds, after an altercation in a suburban Napier street.

The latest arrest came on Thursday, where a 17-year-old female was charged with intent to injure.

She was given bail and is set to appear in Napier District Court on October 9.

Detective Inspector Martin James acknowledged the dedicated team who are “not leaving any stone unturned to bring justice to Kaea’s family.”

“The investigation into the matter continues and further arrests cannot be ruled out,” James said.

Police thanked members of the public who provided information to help progress the investigation.
