"Police are investigating a death in Crownthorpe, Hastings, reported last night (18 February). The person is believed to have died in circumstances related to Cyclone Gabrielle," the police said in a Sunday statement.
In another release issued earlier in the day, the New Zealand police said that another Gabrielle-related death had been confirmed at a private home at Onekawa, Napier.
Earlier reports said that at least nine people had died due to flooding caused by Cyclone Gabrielle in New Zealand.
Thus the total death toll now stands at 11.
