A 22-year-old man arrested north of Wellington this morning after an armed offenders squad (AOS) callout has appeared in court today.
Gene Napier Glover appeared in the Porirua District Court charged with unlawfully possessing a .22 rifle and failing to appear at court yesterday.
Glover did not enter pleas on the two new charges, but pleaded guilty to five earlier charges relating to a domestic incident in June, a Porirua District Court spokesman told NZPA.
He was remanded in custody for another court appearance on August 23.
Glover was arrested after he returned home this morning.
