• An 18-year-old Invercargill man who had driven to Queenstown with his friends was found to be "extremely inebriated" and was taken to the Queenstown police station for detoxification.

Sgt Watt said the teenager had been in an argument with his friends and spent from 1am until 7.30am at the police station.

• A 21-year-old woman from the United States was seen outside the Mountaineer building entrance, urinating on the path.

She was arrested and released with a pre-charge warning.
