A 44-year-old man is facing numerous charges following an incident at a Park Terrace house in Blenheim.
Police were called to the house just after 5pm on Friday, Marlborough Area Commander Inspector Simon Feltham, said after a man arrived with a gun.
A baby inside the house during the incident was unharmed.
Feltham said the man has been charged with threatening to kill, discharging a firearm to intimidate, abducting a child under 16, and contravening a protection order.
He is due to appear in Blenheim District Court on Monday.
