A 29-year-old man and a 63-year-old woman have been charged after an assault at a Dargaville shop.
Whangārei-Kaipara area investigations manager Detective Senior Sergeant Shane Pilmer said Police were called to a store on Victoria Road just before 11am on Tuesday.
"An assault has occurred inside the store involving parties known to each other."
"The alleged offender in the assault then left the store, before getting into a vehicle and leaving the area."
He said a man in the vehicle allegedly pointed a firearm and made verbal threats towards a person at a bus stop.
The man has been charged with commission of a crime with a firearm, presenting a pistol, and threatening to kill; while an older woman has been charged with two counts of assault.
They were both due to appear in the Whangārei District Court.
