Body found in Auckland Harbour

Police are appealing for information after the body of a man was found floating in Auckland Harbour.

The man, thought to be in his 20s, was found by a group of wakeboarders in the water near the Auckland Harbour Bridge about 10.50am on Saturday.

He was described as being Asian and of thin build.

He was wearing an Adidas T-shirt with a large red, yellow and green logo on the front.

The man also had a single chain necklace with a ring on it around his neck.

The body is not believed to have been in the water for more than a few hours.

Given the tide was on its way out at the time, it is unlikely he floated from the inner harbour area to where he was found, police said.

No one fitting the man's description had been reported missing to police.

Anyone with information was asked to call police on 0274 367 561 or email jessica.phuang@police.govt.nz
