Seven young people have been arrested after chaos on Raglan roads overnight

Just before 3am, Police responded to reports of a vehicle - believed to be stolen - doing burnouts on Riria Kereopa Memorial Drive.

Police say the occupants then reportedly attempted to steal a vehicle from an address on Manukau Road a short time later.

They say two vehicles fled, before they were spiked outside of Raglan, with officers arresting all seven occupants.

A couple of hours later, a vehicle was allegedly set on fire down a bank at nearby Wainui Road, which spread to surrounding scrub.

Police say the fire's been extinguished, and enquiries are ongoing to determine if the incidents are linked.
