A subsequent search of the car allegedly revealed a firearm located inside.
Following inquiries, a 37-year-old man was arrested at a home on Glenelg Street a short time later.
He was taken to Raymond Terrace Police Station, where he was charged with multiple offences.
He was refused bail to appear before Raymond Terrace Local Court today.
