Officers and forensics cordoned off the cul-de-sac at the end of the street.

A St John spokesperson said staff attended the incident and took one person to Auckland Hospital.

Police believe this is an isolated incident and do not believe there is any ongoing risk to the public.

The scene examination is due to be completed later today, they said.
