About 6.30pm on Saturday 10 February 2018, a 30-year-old man was dropped at Coffs Harbour Health Campus, suffering gunshot wounds to his hand and shoulder.
It’s alleged the man was shot while sitting in a vehicle on Ridge Street at Coffs Harbour.
The man underwent surgery and was released from hospital.
Detectives from Coffs/Clarence Police District established Strike Force Ebal to investigate the shooting.
Following inquiries, a 27-year-old man was arrested in Grafton earlier today (Tuesday 29 May 2018).
The Coffs Harbour man was taken to Grafton Police Station where he was charged with discharge firearm with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
He was refused bail to appear at Grafton Local Court today (29 May 2018), where he was remanded in custody to appear at Coffs Harbour Local Court on 24 July 2018.
