A 26-year-old man has been arrested after a firearms incident in Napier early on Sunday.

Police were called to the incident in Te Awa, Napier, about 4am on Sunday.

Hawke's Bay area commander Lincoln Sycamore said the 26-year-old man was arrested and is due to appear in the Hastings District Court on Monday on firearms-related charges.

Sycamore said it is believed to be an isolated incident and police are not seeking anyone else in relation to the matter.
