Police are investigating after a person was threatened with a gun in their Rotorua home overnight.

A police spokeswoman said an aggravated burglary happened at a residential property on Victory Rd in Fairy Springs at 8.30pm.

Three people are believed to have entered the house and threatened one occupant with a firearm, demanding money, she said.

No one was injured and the group left the scene in a vehicle.

The spokeswoman said a scene guard was put in place at the property overnight and a scene examination would take place today.
