    A man will be appearing in court next week in relation to the death of a man following a crash in Bay of Plenty's Pongakawa


    The single-vehicle crash happened around 8:45pm on Tuesday on Maniatutu Road.

    It was not reported to Police, and the driver and the passengers of the vehicle made their way home to their addresses in the area.

    Around 4:30am on Wednesday, the driver of the vehicle and flatmate of one of the passengers in the car found the passenger dead at their home.

    Police have charged a 40-year-old man with dangerous driving causing death.

    He's due in Tauranga District Court next week.
