    Police have seized three firearms and six offensive weapons in Opotiki

    Police have seized three firearms and six offensive weapons in Opotiki


    Roads in Whakatane were closed yesterday as hundreds of gang members gathered at the tangi for a Mob leader.

    Local Commander Acting Inspector Tristan Murray says eight gang-related vehicles were searched - and firearms, ammunition and weapons were found in five.

    Two people have been charged.

    Murray says they hope this will reassure the community they're dealing with unlawful activity.

    Police believe Steven Taiatini was hit by a silver Holden Colorado 4x4 last Friday - and are asking anyone with information to contact them.
