Mt Albert tree protesters 'shocked' by police visit

Police, Auckland city officials and security guards turned up at Ōwairaka - Mt Albert in the early hours of the morning, to talk to protesters trying to stop trees being felled.
They were joined by arborists who turned up early to see what they could chop down with hand tools.
While protesters say it was polite and non-confrontational, some of them are shaken by the visit in the middle of the night.
We can speak now to Glenn Petterd who was on the Maunga at the time.
