Charges over 'assault with fake gun'

Charges over ‘assault with fake gun’
A HASTINGS police sergeant drew her gun and prepared to fire at a man who aimed what was later found to be an imitation firearm at her colleague.
The dramatic confrontation, at Hastings, occurred during an alleged family violence incident which quickly escalated, 8pm, Sunday 13 December.
Detective Senior Sergeant Tony Henry, of Somerville CIU, said seven police and detectives rushed to the Simon Street property after receiving triple zero calls from neighbours.
He said they were met by an “aggressive” man who allegedly pointed what appeared to be a semi-automatic rifle at them.
Police will allege the man pulled the trigger – firing what was later found to be a gel capsule – at the leading officer.
