    A shooting at an Auckland luxury hotel sparked a wide-spread response from armed officers today


    Police say a gun was fired at the Sofitel Hotel on Viaduct Harbour Avenue just after nine this morning.

    A worker at a nearby business says a man was led away in handcuffs by officers soon after.

    Police then rushed to a property in Orakei - where an eagle helicopter assisted ground staff.

    Police say two people from that address, and a person located at the hotel ... are assisting with enquiries.

    There are no reported injuries.
