Farmer’s Gun License Revoked After Threats | Sydney News

An almond farmer in Riverland, South Australia, lost his firearms license after allegedly threatening to burn biosecurity officers alive during a fruit fly inspection — a claim the tribunal found credible despite his 25-year clean record. Police later seized his unsecured weapons, including a loaded shotgun left in his unlocked car, leading to charges and a $1,000 fine.
