ACT Police have raided a home believed to be connected to the alleged gunpoint robbery of Nick Kyrgios’ Tesla in Canberra, The Daily Telegraph has reported.

A 32-year-old Canberra man was arrested on Tuesday after he allegedly threatened Nick Kyrgios’ mum with a long-barrel gun and demanded the keys to his car at about 8.30am on Monday.

According to a statement by ACT Police, officers raided a Gilmore home on Tuesday afternoon and allegedly found a shotgun believed to be the firearm used during the robbery.

Police said during the search they also found two other firearms, an unreturned, rented BMW, and commercial-grade fireworks and substances suspected of being drugs.
