Two people are being questioned by police after a pistol was allegedly found in a car at Wallsend this morning.
Officers noticed a Nissan Navara leaving the car park of the Bunnings Warehouse just before 1.00am and pulled the vehicle over.
They became suspicious and searched the car, allegedly finding the gun under the front passenger seat.
The driver, a 26-year-old man from Singleton and a 21-year-old female passenger from Carrington were arrested.
It's expected they'll be changed with firearm offences.
