An alleged Comanchero bikie has been arrested and a slew of items, including cars and drugs, seized in a police bust.
The 40-year-old Morphett Vale man was arrested at a Novar Gardens home just after 11am on Monday by members of the Serious and Organised Crime Branch and the Special Task and Rescue Group.
They seized an Audi station wagon, a Holden Captiva and a Ford Focus.
A search also uncovered a loaded .22 calibre handgun, ammunition, about 500g of methamphetamine, a stolen police ID and more than $10,000 cash.
The man has been charged with three counts of breaching bail conditions and has been remanded in custody to appear in court at a later date.
Detective Chief Inspector David Scutchings said: “SAPOL will continue to focus our attention on members and associates of outlaw motorcycle gangs who choose to put the community at risk by arming themselves with firearms”.
