A 39-year-old Kippa-Ring man charged in relation to a shooting north of Brisbane last week will remain behind bars until at least the new year.
Lewis Raffin is charged with acts intended to cause grievous bodily harm and unlawful possession of a firearm.
Mr Raffin’s matter was mentioned in Redcliffe Magistrates Court today, but he was not required to appear.
He appeared in Brisbane Magistrates Court on Saturday, where his bail was denied.
The charges followed the alleged shooting at a Dodds St home in Margate on October 14.
Police were alerted after a man with a bullet wound to his chest was dropped off at Redcliffe Hospital.
A crime scene was established at the Dodds St home and a second at a car found elsewhere.
Due to the nature of the offences the matter will have to be dealt with in a higher court.
Magistrate Mark Bucknall ordered police to prepare a brief of evidence and adjourned the matter for a Committal Mention on January 14, 2021.
Mr Raffin was remanded in custody.
