The Police Minister is rejecting claims a baby was left alone during last month's Bay of Plenty gang raids.   

Police carried out a series of raids targeting the Barbarian chapter of the Mongrel Mob, based in Ōpōtiki. 

Allegations have since emerged of Police leaving young children alone in homes after the operations.  

Mark Mitchell told Mike Hosking the claims are baseless. 

He says Police have reassured him that no children were left alone afterwards.
