60 people were deployed in the search area in the bush today, made up of Police and LandSAR volunteers.
They are looking for 21-year-old Vincent Taurima of Hawke’s Bay and 26-year-old Hakopa Ngaronoa of Palmerston North.
The pair abandoned an allegedly stolen vehicle and fled into the bush after a police chase on Saturday last week.
