SHOOTING CHARGE.
LOADED GUN FOUND. ARREST AT AIANUTUKE. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) GISBORNE, Friday. Reports that a man was at large at Alanutuke with a loaded rifle led to a party of four police leaving Gisborne this morning. Reaching the locality they found tliat a five-acre section had been enclosed by hawthorn branches entwined, in the fence. Approaching a house in the centre of the section the police we[c met by William Henry Gleye, against whom a complaint had been lodged. The presence of numerous bees in the building added to the difficulties of the police, but an arrest was effected without undue trouble. A loaded shotgun was found behind the front door of the house.
Gleye later appeared before justices of the peace charged with having discharged a gun at Charles Panmure, a native, with intent to do grievous bodily harm. He was remanded until October 9.
