Police have blocked off a driveway on Akatarawa Rd in Brown Owl.
A neighbour on Awatarawa Rd said there were six or seven police cars along with a number of ambulances and a fire engine on the street.
“There’s an armed officer at the end of this steep driveway – it’s usually a very quiet street,” he said.
A scene guard was in place and the public could expect to see an increased police presence in the area, the police spokesperson said.
