Police said they were investigating a report of shots being fired at a property in Flat Bush.

The incident happened on Timmers Rd shortly before 10pm.

Police said nobody was injured in the incident.

Manukau ward councillor Alf Fillipaina hoped the shooting was not gang related, as negotiations for a truce take place.

Tensions between the Killer Beez and Tribesmen have resulted in multiple shootings in Auckland and Northland in recent months.

Fillipaina said if the incident was gang related, something needed to happen for families to get back to normality.
