TEEN CHARGED AFTER STORE OWNER THREATENED WITH REPLICA PISTOL

A teenage boy is facing a raft of charges after allegedly using a replica pistol on the Central Coast.

Earlier this month, four youths entered a store on Terrigal Drive, one of them allegedly producing the replica and threatening the store manager.

The 15-year-old was arrested at a Green Point home late on Thursday.

He’s charged with using an unauthorised pistol, assault and intimidation and will face children’s court later this month.
