A man was found dead outside a central city brothel early on Tuesday morning.
Club 574 – one of the oldest brothel’s in Auckland, New Zealand – was surrounded by police as investigators worked to piece together what had happened.
A member of the public had found the body on Epsom’s Manukau Rd shortly after midnight, police said.
The brothel, which charges about $220 an hour, was often trouble-free, an employee told the New Zealand Herald.

There was ‘always drama’ between the girls and mangers as well, but clients were relatively well-behaved, she said.
The club, which is a large two-storey in a suburban street, has no security and only has security cameras surrounding the building.
However, a local business owner said she had seen gang members frequenting the club.
Police launched a homicide investigation into the death.
The property is currently wrapped in police tape.
Police are still working to identify the man and contact his family.
