    A body has been found near Ohope Beach, thought to be the man who fled from Police on Christmas night

    A body has been found near Ohope Beach, thought to be the man who fled from Police on Christmas night


    The 48-year-old Whakatane man ran away from officers and jumped into Ohiwa Harbour, after they were called to a family harm-related incident.

    A search has been ongoing since, with a body discovered overnight near the mouth of the harbour east of Ohope Beach.

    Eastern Bay of Plenty Area Commander Inspector Nicky Cooney says a formal identification process is still ongoing.

    She says the death will be referred to the coroner.
