Police say they’re making enquiries into a serious assault in the south Auckland suburb of Manukau last night, August 26.
Yesterday evening, police were notified of an assault that occurred after a two-vehicle crash between a Toyota and a Volkswagen on Ronwood Avenue.
Senior sergeant Aji Basra says an occupant of the Toyota has reportedly been assaulted by occupants of the Volkswagen.
“Two people received minor injuries, one of which required medical attention, and has self-transported to hospital.
“The victims are understandably shaken by the incident, and we are providing them with support.”
It’s believed a firearm has been presented and discharged during the incident towards the Toyota which has left minor damage to a vehicle.
“The offenders have then left the area in the Volkswagen, in tandem with a Nissan, prior to police arrival.”
Following initial enquiries, police located the Volkswagen abandoned on Cavendish Drive, where it’s believed the offenders have left in the Nissan.
Police are now working to determine what’s happened and to identify and locate the offenders believed to be responsible.
