A police operation in the heart of Cessnock has ended with the arrest of a man on domestic violence-related offences.
It's alleged the 34-year-old forced his way into a unit on North Avenue around 2.30am on Sunday and threatened a woman with what's believed to be a firearm.
Following investigations, officers from the Tactical Operations Unit and local police sealed off the area around midday yesterday (Monday 13 April 2025), with the man taken into custody at about 4.30pm.
He's been charged with four offences including assault occasioning actual bodily harm DV and will face the bail court today (Tuesday 14 April, 2025).
