A man has been arrested after three Fire and Emergency NZ vehicles blocked one lane on Darraghs Rd today.

Multiple police vehicles were also on scene and a fire hose could be seen lying alongside the footpath but not in use.

A Bay of Plenty Times reporter at the scene in Brookfield said men in white boiler suits were seen and one police officer had come down a long driveway near Waikareao Way.

Fire and Emergency NZ had a shower set up further down the road.

A police spokeswoman said police were conducting a pre-planned search warrant in the area and no other information was available at this stage.

It is unclear what the man has been charged with but will appear in court.
