Armed police have attended a burglary in central Wellington this evening but a spokesperson says no firearms were located.
It was earlier thought an armed robbery was taking place.
At least three police cars and four armed police were seen outside a building that houses the New Zealand Film Commission and Master Plumbers on Ghuznee Street in the central Wellington suburb of Te Aro.
Police were called to the building just after 5pm and were armed as a precaution. One person was arrested.
