A MILD SENSATION.
PEB FBESS ASSOCIATION. Auckland, March 24. A rather sensational incident occurred in Swansca-stroot last night, when a man named Smith was arrested on a charge of wilful damage to property. On being informed that a disturbance was going on Constables Boss and Halliday went to the house and demanded admittance. They had some trouble in getting in, as the man was armed with a gun, and it is alleged that he pointed it at them. The constables advanced, and succeeded in throwing and disarming him. The gun was an old one, and not capable of 'doing much harm.
