A brawl broke out at the Auckland waterfront last night, drawing police to the scene in a flurry of sirens.
ONe person was badly injured and another sustained moderate injuries in the 9.30pm violence at the Queens Wharf area. A small fire was reportedly lit outside the front of The Cloud.
A bystander said he had heard an alarm go off to evacuate a nearby building.
About 200 people spilled out onto the pavement, he said.
"Everyone was running away and saying 'run'!"
