Police are investigating the incident.
More information is expected to be released today.
The Herald understands the incident happened outside a property that has operated as boarding house on the street.
In 2017 the boarding house was shut down by Auckland Council because it did not have resource consent.
At the time a neighbour spoke to Mediaworks about the situation.
She said she had complained to Auckland Council for "years" about problems at the property.
"It's over-crowded, there's a lot of noise, there's often domestic incidents, there's police arrests, a lot of fighting," she told Newshub.
"It's just basically an over-crowded situation with poor living conditions so it's a stressful situation for people to be living in."
