Armed police conducted their second set of search warrants in as many days in Hawke's Bay, this time at a number of properties in Eskdale and Bay View.

A witness said he spotted police at three homes near State Highway 5 in the township about 9.30am on Tuesday.

"They appeared to hit three houses at the same time," he said.

Another witness spotted a number of police vehicles outside a property on Grey St, Bay View, at a similar time.

Police confirmed multiple search warrants were carried out in the area on Tuesday morning, but were unable to provide any further details.

On Monday, police taped off a property on a major Hastings road to conduct a pre-planned search warrant.

A number of armed police were seen at the Omahu Rd property, between Kirkwood Rd and State Highway 50, about 2.30pm.

A police spokeswoman said she could not say if any arrests had been made.
