    A local councillor says there's no danger to the wider public after a man died while in police custody at Auckland's Orere Point

    A local councillor says there's no danger to the wider public after a man died while in police custody at Auckland's Orere Point


    He was tazered, pepper-sprayed and targeted by a police dog yesterday afternoon, after he wielded a samurai sword and bit a police officer.

    He was one of two men who allegedly fled police in Papakura about 2:15pm.

    Franklin Ward Councillor Andy Baker says it's most likely a one off incident.
