One person has been charged as an investigation continues into a threatening email directed at two Auckland schools.
Enquiries by Counties Manukau Police into the origin of the email led investigators to a Māngere East address.
Acting Counties Manukau District Commander Inspector Alison Brand says Police executed a search warrant this morning where a man and woman were taken into custody without incident.
“Investigation staff have been speaking with both of these individuals throughout the day.”
Police have now charged a 20-year-old man with a firearms offence.
This relates to a firearm located at a different property.
He is expected in the Manukau District Court tomorrow, charged with unlawful possession of a firearm.
Inspector Brand says there are further charges likely to be laid as a result of this morning’s search warrant.
