A man has died and two people have been arrested after an alleged assault on the NSW North Coast.
Police were told the 34-year-old man had allegedly been assaulted at The Hermitage in Tweed Heads South by a man known to him before he made his way to a home on Seaview Crescent.

NSW Police Acting Inspector Gary Sheehan said the man was found in the driveway of the home and taken to Tweed Valley Hospital.
“Unfortunately, he had some fatal injuries and didn’t survive,” Sheehan said.
“After the investigators spoke to the owner of that house, they then went back to The Hermitage, where they spoke with the 31-year-old male and 29-year-old female.
“They were both arrested and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station.”
Sheehan said the 29-year-old woman has since been charged with hindering a police investigation.
The 31-year-old man is assisting police with their enquiries.
The 34-year-old man has not been formally identified.
A report will be prepared for the coroner.
