Queensland police reveal officers were following up an outstanding warrant for police shooter Nathaniel Train relating to a border breach from December 2021, as well as a missing person report, when they attended the Wieambilla property last week.
However, Deputy Commissioner Linford said Nathaniel Train's firearms licence had been suspended."Police wanted to speak to Nathaniel about the events of the December incident and had gone to the property but were unable to raise any individual there.
"This was a run-of-the-mill policing job. There wasn't anything to flag particular concern with our members who were attending the scene that day. The vehicle Nathaniel Train crossed the NSW-Queensland border in was seized by police in Goondiwindi this week. She said Nathaniel Train's wife, who resides in NSW, reported him missing as she had not physically seen him in 12 months.
