Officers in the Waikato district are all now carrying firearms until further notice as the manhunt continues.
The Herald reported last night that at about 9.20pm a police unit attempted to stop a vehicle travelling on Heaphy Terrace, Fairfield.
The vehicle failed to stop and turned into Oxford St, and was followed by the police unit.
