A man has suffered serious stab wounds after an incident at a house in West Auckland late last night.
Emergency services responded to an incident in a home on Gardner Ave, New Lynn, around 11.30pm on Friday.
A police spokesperson said police were dispatched after "receiving information" that a person had been stabbed there.
"An injured man was located by police at the property and taken to hospital with serious injuries," the spokesperson said.
Police confirmed they had arrested a 47-year-old man in relation to the incident "soon after".
The man has been charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, driving in a dangerous manner and failing to stop when followed by red/blue flashing lights.
He is due to appear in the Waitākere District Court today.
Police say the vehicle left the road before colliding with a tree on Tuesday.
