One person has been arrested following a suspected shooting at a Mount Wellington property, police said.
Emergency services were called to the property on Mount Wellington Highway early on Tuesday, between Te Horeta Rd and Rowlands Ave, where a man was found in a serious condition with what appeared to be a serious gunshot wound.
Auckland Police Senior Sergeant Michael Wickman said police executed a search warrant at an address in Ireland Road, Mount Wellington late on Tuesday night.
“Police are following lines of enquiry in relation to yesterday's incident where a man suffered what appeared to be a serious gunshot wound in Mount Wellington, and was transported to hospital in a serious condition.”
“Shortly before the search warrant was executed, a person has driven away from Ireland Road and has subsequently been taken into custody in Pakuranga without issue,” Wickman said.
