e small Otago seaside township of Aramoana, near Dunedin, was the scene of the deadliest mass murder in New Zealand history when David Gray went on a shooting spree that left 13 people dead.
Gray, a 33-year-old unemployed Aramoana resident, went on his rampage following a verbal dispute with a neighbour. After shooting the man and his daughter he began indiscriminately shooting at anything that moved. Armed with a scoped semi-automatic rifle, Gray killed 13 people, including Sergeant Stewart Guthrie, the first policeman to respond to the emergency. (Guthrie was posthumously awarded the George Cross for gallantry.)
Gray was tracked down during a house-by-house search the next day. When he started firing he was shot and mortally wounded by Special Tactics Group police.

The movie was as close to the facts more so than AAT movies or the other infamous Dunedin case DB. |
