Eli Epiha tells jury he ignored dying officer's plea for help
As unarmed Constable Matthew Hunt lay dying in the street, gunned down by Eli Epiha, he asked for help from the man who just shot him, Epiha told jurors today as he testified at his own trial.
"I was thinking about it for a few seconds," Epiha said of the plea from the officer. "I'm thinking about chucking him in the police car and driving him down to Waitakere Hospital.
"When I was looking down at him, that's when I start to hear sirens."
