Raptor Squad Charges Bandidos Member in Assault

Raptor Squad officers have charged an alleged member of the Bandidos OMCG with allegedly assaulting another man at a Greystanes hotel last month.

About 7.45pm on Friday 16 August 2024, police were called to a hotel on Merrylands Road, Greystanes, following reports of an assault.

Officers arrived and were told a 48-year-old man had allegedly punched and stomped on a 39-year-old man's head before leaving the scene.

The 39-year-old was taken to Westmead Hospital by NSW Ambulance paramedics where he was treated for serious head injuries.

Following extensive investigations, State Crime Command's Raptor Squad executed a search warrant at a West Pennant Hills home about 6am yesterday (Wednesday 4 September 2024).

During the search, officers arrested a 48-year-old man – and an alleged member of the Bandidos OMCG with retired status – before taking him to Castle Hill Police Station.

He was charged with reckless wounding and affray.

The man was refused bail to appear before Parramatta Local Court yesterday.

Investigations continue.
