A family fight ended in a police siege last night after a man began shooting a house and nearby cars from the back yard of his Huntingdale property.
Sergeant Graham Clifford said police rushed to a house on Kelvdedon Way at 6.30pm yesterday, where a 43-year-old man was seen walking in and out of his house, charging a rifle and firing shots.
The man had also shot bullets into a car in front of the house, Sergeant Clifford said. No one was injured from the stray bullets.
Police cordoned off the area and officers approached the man to surrender his weapon.
Sergeant Clifford said the man was eventually arrested after being subdued with a Taser and disarmed.
He said the man had become enraged following a fight with a family member.
Charges are expected to be laid later today.
