A cordon remains in place in the inner Auckland suburb where a person was believed to have been fatally shot.

Armed police were outside a house on Tuarangi Road in Grey Lynn on Thursday night and the street was cordoned off.

RNZ's reporter at the scene said the cordons were still in place on Friday morning.

He said armed officers were still standing guard as well.

"A blue forensic tent is still set up outside a set of housing units."

A woman at the scene on Thursday told RNZ her nephew was the victim and police said others had been injured.

As well as armed officers and police vehicles, the police Eagle helicopter was also circling the area on Thursday evening.
