More than a dozen police swarmed on Auckland's Queen St this evening, making two arrests as crowds of passers-by watched and filmed.
At least five police cars and a police van rushed to the footpath outside Centre Court on Lower Queen St about 5.40pm.
Two women were arrested while screaming abuse as crowds watched, a witness said.
