Strike Force Officers Raid Hunter Homes In Search Of Guns

BY IAN CROUCH

Police are stepping up their investigations into this week's drive-by shootings involving bikie gangs in the Hunter.

The Herald reports officers from Strike Force Raptor raided six properties yesterday looking for guns.

More than 30 shots were fired into the Wallsend home of a Nomads enforcer on Tuesday night in the third gang-related drive-by shooting since Saturday.

A Nomads clubhouse at Muswellbrook was firebombed while three men have faced court over assaults at a Kotara gym and a hotel at Honeysuckle during a week of violent incidents between rival bikie gangs.
