A high-ranking member of the Finks Outlaw Motorcycle Gang will face court today after being arrested following a vehicle stop in Maitland on Monday.

Around 7:40 Monday morning, police from Strike Force Raptor stopped a vehicle in Chisholm when a 32-year-old male passenger became aggressive and made threats.

He then resisted arrest and fled the scene, before being apprehended at Maitland Police Station yesterday.

He was charged with a number of offences, including resist arrest, assault police, intimidate police and offensive language before being refused bail to face Maitland Local Court today.
