A Dunedin man allegedly wielding a knife and a sawn-off shotgun at a house last night is to appear in court.
Senior Sergeant Anthony Bond said police received reports from a Stafford St property that a 42-year-old man was there with a gun and knife at 6.35pm.
Officers attended and found him in the street.
He was arrested and found to be in possession of two live shotgun rounds.
A search of the property located a sawn-off shotgun in the lounge area.
The man would appear in the Dunedin District Court this morning, Snr Sgt Bond said.
