Armed police blocked off Travers St in Vogeltown, Wellington, on Sunday afternoon after reports of a shooting. A local resident said that while the area could be busy, because a lot of people used it to access MacAlister Park, it was usually quiet on Sunday afternoons. “It was alarming to suddenly see something like a dozen police vehicles up and down the road, and armed cops striding up and down the street. “It is not a crime hot spot, so seeing any police here, let alone that many, is out of the ordinary.”
