Police staff continue to remain at a Te Ngae address after a male was shot by police earlier today.
After receiving initial first aid at the scene, the male has now been transported to hospital.
Police are also advising members of the public that motorists are now being allowed through the area, however they should still expect some delays.
Police are aware the road is a main thoroughfare, and with it nearing the afternoon peak time, but are asking motorists to use alternate routes if possible.
