Police arrest six in Laverton

Six people have been arrested after a Point Cook woman notified authorities about a man allegedly seen in possession of a firearm in Seabrook.

Police said they were told a 41-year-old Point Cook woman was driving along Point Cook Road on Wednesday, October 5, when she observed a white Nissan X-Trail allegedly driving erratically about 10.15am.

The woman pulled over into a bus stop, where the driver of the Nissan got out of his car while allegedly holding a firearm.

The woman then called triple-0 and the Nissan was driven away from the scene.

Police said the Nissan was later found at a property in Eades Street, Laverton, where two women and a man were arrested in the vehicle a short time later.

Two other women were arrested in another vehicle seen leaving the property.

Another man was arrested without incident inside the property, where a firearm was allegedly located.

Nobody was injured, and investigations are ongoing.
