The four men, all alleged members of the Nomads Outlaw Motorcycle Gang, have been taken to Penrith Police Station where they currently remain.

Search warrants were also executed by police where they located and seized motorcycle club colours and clothing, about 0.5 kilograms of amphetamine, a quantity of cocaine, a quantity of steroids, as well as a variety of weapons.
