Police found patched Mongrel Mob Aotearoa member Fairmont Joseph Wiringi at a Linwood address just after 8.30pm on Friday after police tracked him driving a stolen vehicle there.
Fairmont Wiringi, who was injured in a double shooting earlier this year, fled after Corrections staff took his handcuffs off to allow him to go to the toilet.
About 5am, a second man, Rebels gang member Jarrad Singer, 29, was dropped off at the hospital by two people, including a member of international bikie gang the Mongols MC. He had a gunshot wound to his arm but the injury wasn’t serious.
Stuff understands police suspect members of another gang, the Neighbourhood Crips (NHC), were also involved in the shooting, which is thought to have happened during a botched drug deal or robbery.
