Two men are dead and another three in hospital after a brawl broke out at a 21st birthday party, on Saturday night in the suburb of Elgin .
One of the three, a 30-year-old is in a critical condition.
It's believed they all suffered stab wounds.
Gisborne Councillor Colin Alder says while the fight wasn't because of a gang rivalry, gang members were involved.
He says the event was spurred on by alcohol and possibly drugs, with a tragic result.
