    The deaths of the elderly couple, found in a West Auckland paddock this week, are being referred to the Coroner


    The bodies of 82-year-old Alfred Hansen and 81-year-old Gaye Hansen were found at their Anzac Valley Road hobby farm, by their son, on Thursday morning.

    Post mortem examinations reveal the pair were killed by an animal.
