A man has been arrested and charged following a firearms incident in Māngere last week. 

Police were called to Harwell Place at 12.30pm on 10 October after reports of a disorder, during which a firearm was believed to have been discharged. 

Detective Senior Sergeant Veronica McPherson, Counties Manukau CIB, says a short time later two people presented at a nearby medical centre with injuries consistent with gunshot wounds. 

“An investigation was launched, and Police identified and arrested a suspect the next day.”
