TY - JOUR PY - 1992// TI - Homicides in Auckland, New Zealand: A 14-year study JO - American journal of forensic medicine and pathology A1 - Lo, M. A1 - Vuletic, J. C. A1 - Koelmeyer, T. D. SP - 44 EP - 49 VL - 13 IS - 1 N2 - In the 14-year period from 1976 to 1989, there have been 174 homicide victims in the Auckland colonial area. Data accessed from autopsy and police reports show that victims of marital conflict, family dispute, and arguments developing between nonmarried couples made up the largest proportion of homicide cases. Stabbing and assault with a blunt weapon were the most common causes of death. The data also show that homicide is relatively uncommon in Auckland in comparison with other cities of similar size.
