The 31-year-old from Warialda is facing a raft of charges after the alleged confrontation that was sparked at a Derra Street, Gravesend, home about 9.30am on Sunday.

Police allege he threatened a 40-year-old man and a 36-year-old woman with a firearm, and then fled in a Toyota Hilux. The older man then chased the accused in a car, and rammed the Hilux.

Police allege the 31-year-old again took off, and fired a number of shots.
