Devonport Rd in Tauranga has reopened following an incident attended by armed police.
A police spokeswoman said one person had been taken into custody “without further incident”.
The road had earlier closed between 12th and 13th Aves after reports of a person with a weapon around 7am.
As a precaution, armed police were on site, the area was cordoned off and members of the public were asked to remain clear.
