A person has been arrested after an incident on Sunset Rd.

A police spokeswoman said officers responded to a dispute reportedly between two people known to each other about 9am today.

She said it appeared there had allegedly been some verbal abuse involved and police had worked to resolve the issue.

One person was arrested, but there was no information on charges at this stage, she said.

Officers were at the scene for about four hours, but there were no reports of injuries.

The incident was happening near the daycare BestStart Sunset.

Their business manager said it had nothing to do with them, but it was happening near their driveway.

She said trees and fences were in the way so they could not see what exactly was going on, but it appeared police were talking to someone.

A Rotorua Daily Post reporter at the scene said a woman had been taken away by police.
