The president of a Canberra bikie club has been arrested on weapons charges following an incident at a Belconnen home over the weekend, police say.
ACT police allege a man tried to break in to a home in Belconnen about 5.40pm Saturday. Officers were called but the man had already left.
A 40-year-old man from Nicholls, who police say is the president of the ACT chapter of the Satudarah Outlaw Motorcycle Club, was found a short time later driving a maroon Mitsubishi Outlander.
Following a search of the car, officers said they found a 38 centimetre extendable baton and a pair of knuckle dusters.
The man was arrested and charged with two counts of possessing a prohibited weapon.
He is expected to face the ACT Magistrates Court on Monday morning.
