Witnesses react to shooting in Papakura

From Checkpoint, 5:18 pm on 3 June 2022

The south Auckland suburb of Papakura was rocked by a shooting this afternoon... right outside its the district court, next to the police station. The incident unfolded just before one-o-clock, and one person was taken to Middlemore hospital in a critical condition. Devika Sharma manages the Unichem pharmacy over the road. She told our reporter Katie Todd she was right in the thick of a busy day at work, when she realised something had happened.
