One patient was transported to Christchurch Hospital in a serious condition.
A scene guard was in place overnight and a scene examination is being conducted this morning.
Local residents said the house is split into two units, and the occupants of one of the units often anti-social behaviour.
It’s not the first time police have been to the property locals say.
