A MAN has appeared in court today after an armed police operation in Lustleigh over the weekend.

This morning, Wayne Anthony Robinson, 54, appeared before Exeter magistrates charged with three offences in relation to the incident.
He is accused of possession of a firearm with intent to cause fear, making threats to kill and affray.
Robinson was given conditional bail and ordered to attend Exeter Crown Court on November 18.
