An Auckland Councillor says people should feel safe in their own city, after shootings in seven suburbs last night. 

The shootings are being attributed to rising gang tensions between the Killer Beez and Tribesmen. 

Josephine Bartley told Heather du Plessis-Allan people have every right to be worried – and it's deeply concerning for everyone. 

“And we already knew that there were going to be issues with the 501s coming from Australia, it would be good to know if they have been involved in these shootings as well.”
