    Another person has been arrested following a spate of gang-related shootings in the eastern Bay of Plenty


    A 27-year-old man is in custody after a woman was shot at, in an armed robbery in Opotiki last Monday.

    He'll appear in the Whakatane District Court today -- charged with assault with intent to rob involving a firearm and unlawful possession of a firearm.

    A man was arrested last month, after he threatened the occupants of an Opotiki home with a firearm.

    The 29-year-old is due to reappear in the Opotiki District Court next January.
