Gladstone man walks into police station, cop pulls gun
A 38-year-old West Gladstone man has been charged after allegedly entering the Gladstone police station this morning armed with a knife and making threats.
It will be alleged about 10.45am a man who had been sitting in the foyer of the station was asked by officers if he required assistance.
