Police are investigating an incident which occurred in Newbury Place, Bridgewater around 10.30pm last night.

It’s alleged a man wearing motorcycle clothing attended a residential address containing three occupants and allegedly produced a firearm. The man demanded property from the occupants, before fleeing the area prior to police arrival. The firearm was not discharged and no one was injured during the incident.

The man was described as approximately 170 cm tall, solid build. The motorcycle clothing he was wearing was white with orange writing on it and he was wearing a motorcycle helmet to hide his face.
