A primary school in East Auckland went into lockdown on Wednesday morning due to a reported shooting nearby.

A police spokesperson said they received a report of a house being shot at on Coates Crescent, Panmure.

No injures have been reported, and police are currently speaking to those involved.

A notice on the Tāmaki Primary School wesbite said: “Tāmaki Primary School has gone into a legitimate lockdown because of an incident nearby our school. We will continue to provide updates on our website as often as possible.

“Please do not come to or phone the school as you will not be attended to and this may cause disruption to the management of this incident and could potentially place yourself, staff and students’ safety at risk.”

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

What are your thoughts? Is that rude?
