Police update 2: PSPA, Ormeau - appeal for public assistance

Gold Coast police investigating a domestic violence incident at Upper Coomera last night (March 15) are trying to locate 37-year-old Mark Lutgenau (pictured).

Police searching for Mark declared an emergent situation under the Public Safety Preservation Act at Ormeau earlier today, which was later revoked when officers were unable to locate him.

Investigations suggest Mark may be armed with a firearm, however there is no known specific threat against members of the community.

Mark is described as Caucasian, around 190cm tall and of a proportionate build. He has short brown hair and hazel eyes.

Anyone who sees Mark is urged to call Triple Zero (000) immediately. Members of the public are advised not to approach him for any reason.

Residents and business owners are asked to be vigilant of any suspicious activity or unknown people in the area and immediately contact police.

Police are also appealing for Mark to contact them.
