The 69-year-old lived in Remuera.

A police spokesperson says police extend their sympathies to Lane’s family “at this difficult time”.

“An off-duty police officer who was involved in the incident will be stood down from duty while an investigation is conducted,” a police spokesperson said.

“The incident will be referred to the Independent Police Conduct Authority.

“Police are unable to comment further while investigations are occurring, including an investigation on behalf of the coroner.”
