A person has been taken into custody following an emergency family harm incident at a house in Taupō last night.

An ambulance and two police vehicles were sent to the scene in Arihia St, Nukuhau.

In a statement police said they were called to a family harm incident at an Acacia Bay address at 3.50pm on Sunday.

"Police are engaging with those involved with additional support attending from Rotorua."

The matter was safely resolved without injury with one person taken into custody around 9.20pm, a police spokeswoman said last night.

A person living in the street said the people at the house were police were focused had a few arguments from time to time.

Today there had been some "drama" although she did not know what it was.

"We came out before and there were police blocking off their driveway."
