Homicide investigation after body found in Paeroa

A police investigation is underway in the Waikato town of Paeroa, after a body was found early this morning in a pool of blood.

At a news conference this afternoon police said they have not ruled out suicide or connections with robberies in the area, but it is too early to speculate.

A post-mortem will be carried out tomorrow on the man, believed to be 57 years old.

He was found in the driveway of an IHC day care centre opposite the town's fire station shortly after 6am.

Rural field crime supervisor Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Whitehead says like in any situations of this nature the man's death would be treated as suspicious until such time as there was information to hand that proved this was not the case.

A formal indentification process is yet to be completed but Paeroa residents have named the man as Jordan Voudouris, the owner of a local pizza restaurant Mykono's Pizza.

Flowers and notes have been left at Mr Voudouris' pizza restaurant and messages have been posted on his restaurant's Facebook page.

Police say they want to hear from anyone who might have seen or heard anything suspicious in the centre of Paeroa overnight or early this morning.

EVERETT -- Police on Wednesday were canvassing the View Ridge-Madison neighborhood in Everett after a man was found dead there the night before. A neighbor spotted the man on the ground outside a vacant house at 22 Madison St. He called 911 about 6:20 p.m. The man had obvious signs of trauma to his torso, police said. He looked to be in his late 20s or early 30s. The Everett Major Crimes Unit is investigating the death as a homicide, Lt. Robert Goetz said. Detectives declined to say more about how they believe the man may have died. There are no identified suspects or motives. Detectives received a search warrant around 11:45 p.m. Tuesday and collected evidence at the scene. They returned Wednesday afternoon to look for clues in the daylight, Goetz said.

Manslaughter charges possible in boy's death

Published: Thursday, August 23, 2012, 5:55 p.m. MONROE -- Detectives believe a 7-year-old Monroe boy's parents should face second-degree manslaughter charges in connection with his January overdose death. Monroe police this week wrapped up their probe into the boy's Jan. 30 death and forwarded the case to prosecutors to decide if his parents should face criminal charges. Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul likely will begin reviewing the case in the coming days. She doesn't expect to make a charging decision in the near future, however. "It's quite an extensive investigation, and I want to review it thoroughly before I make any decision," she said. The boy, identified as "A.J." in court papers, ingested a lethal amount of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and other over-the-counter drugs. The medical examiner declined to conduct an autopsy on the boy, making it difficult to determine how the drug ended up in the boy's system. A
