TAREE MAN WITH REPLICA HUND GUN DENIED BAIL

A man, who allegedly walked through Taree’s CBD yesterday dressed in an Army-style camouflage vest, carrying a replica handgun, has been refused bail in court today.

20-year-old William Butler from Taree, is charged with possessing a prohibited fire arm, intimidation and offensive conduct.

Police say they arrested Mr Butler at Manning Mall after receiving numerous reports from the public that a man appeared to be carrying a blue gun through the centre of town.

He will re-appear in court in February.
