    Friends and fellow students of the Auckland teenager who died in Omaha on New Year's Day, will farewell him with a haka at his funeral this weekend


    Seventeen year old Joshua Hartner was lying in the sand at a property on Omaha Drive when he was hit and killed by a car around 4am.

    The driver of the car involved is also a teenager and a friend of Hartner.

    Hartner's funeral will be held in the Great Hall at Auckland Grammar School on Saturday morning.

    A newsletter from headmaster Tim O'Connor says his family has extended an invitation to students and families.
