Police have made three arrests for a burglary, including one offender who led an officer on a one-kilometre foot pursuit.

On Thursday morning, The Waitematā Gang Disruption Unit, with assistance from the Tactical Crime Unit, executed a search warrant at a Rānui address.

Detective Senior Sergeant Josh Lautogo says the burglary investigation targeted suspects with possible links to the Headhunters Motorcycle Gang.

"During the search, Police located a .22 semiautomatic cutdown rifle, a cannabis plant and a number of stolen items.

“One man was arrested without incident, but another fled the address on foot,” Detective Senior Sergeant Lautogo says.

An officer immediately gave chase, pursuing the offender through streets and over multiple fences for nearly a kilometre.

But the offender was no match for the officer’s endurance, and he was apprehended.

“The man was searched, and methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia was found in his possession,” Detective Senior Sergeant Lautogo says

While Police continued their search of the property, a woman with a warrant out for her arrest arrived at the address and was subsequently arrested.

Detective Senior Sergeant Lautogo says three people have been charged with burglary, firearm, drugs and warrant offences.

A 26-year-old man has been charged with burglary, possession for supply of a cannabis plant and unlawfully possessing a firearm.

A 27-year-old man has been charged with possession of methamphetamine and possession of methamphetamine utensils.

A 32-year-old woman has been charged with failure to answer district court bail.

All three will appear in Waitākere District Court today.
