After gaining entry to the car park, they allegedly broke into five vehicles, including an unmarked police car.

The group then fled the scene in an allegedly stolen black BMW and the Commodore they arrived in, allegedly taking off with the police-issued gun and ammunition.

The four men, aged 18, 24, 25 and 40 were arrested in raids across Townsville on Tuesday.

They have been collectively charged with 49 offences, including drug and weapon charges.

Police announced late yesterday the gun and ammunition had been found.
