A Venezuelan national was arrested with a pistol after he allegedly fired gunshots at Store Bay Beach Facility around 10 am today.
Police said they saw a man running along Store Bay Local Road when they arrived. They followed him to Merchantman Avenue, where they got more information. The man then ran back toward Store Bay Beach Facility, where officers held him.
A search revealed one pistol, but no ammunition.
The man, who spoke Spanish, identified himself as Roger Alexander. However, police believe he may have given them a false name.
Enquiries are continuing.
