An 85-year-old man has been charged after police seized more than 350 firearms from his home on Sydney’s north shore.
In May, officers from North Shore Police Area Command attended a home in Rangers Avenue at Mosman, to conduct a safe storage inspection of the firearms secured at the premises.
“A number of concerns in relation to the Firearms Act 1996 were identified and an investigation commenced,” NSW Police said in a statement today.
Later the same month, officers returned to the house and issued a firearms suspension warning and seized over 350 firearms.
Following further inquiries an 85-year-old man was issued with a Court Attendance Notice yesterday for 11 counts of unregistered firearm, five counts of not keep firearm safely, and a dozen counts of not produce registered firearm.
He is expected to appear in Manly Local Court on November 16.
