    Police are asking the public to help identify a 10-litre container related to a fatal house fire in Auckland's Bucklands Beach this month


    Two people died in the blaze on Murvale Drive, which started about 2.30am on October 2.

    Police are treating it as a double homicide and trying to identify who's responsible.

    They want to hear of any sightings of people with containers like the one found at the scene - believed to have held an accelerant.
