On New Year’s Eve it’s alleged the 29-year-old man attended a party in a house on Northcliffe Drive.
He then allegedly threatened the female host and her guests with a pistol before striking a man in the face with the gun, causing a laceration.
It is then alleged that the man then threw the gun into a garden before police arrived.
After conducting investigations, police from Lake Illawarra Local Area Command arrested the man at a house in Dapto last night.
He was charged with several offences including assault and possessing an unregistered firearm.
He was refused bail and will appear in Wollongong Local Court today.
