A man has died at an incident at Bayswater Marina on Auckland's North Shore.
About a dozen armed police surrounded a boat at the marina. A police negotiator called for a man onboard to come out.
Shift commander Marty Brown confirmed a man had died on the boat.
"We went through the process of trying to get hold of that male, that's been unsuccessful, and we've now been on the boat in question. We've established there is one male deceased on the boat."
Police said they blocked off the marina and contained any threat to anyone else.
