A 25-year-old man has been arrested after a shotgun and ammunition were seized during a police operation in Chifley.
Police say a warrant was issued for the man’s arrest in April after he allegedly breached his parole conditions.
Officers attended a Chifley home on Wednesday and, after several hours of negotiation, the man surrendered to police.
During a search of the property, police seized a shotgun and dozens of shotgun shells.
Police also believe the man may be linked to a number of vehicle thefts and burglaries across Canberra.
Investigations are continuing and further charges are expected.
