A complaint about a man threatening staff at a motor dealership quickly spiralled into an incident involving illegal guns, stacks of money and an ocean of booze.

Unlicensed firearms and ammunition seized at the Pinelands home of a man who was arrested in Table View on March 28 2019 after threatening staff at a car dealership.
