    A 21-year-old man's been arrested after a child was hit by gel gun pellets, while taking part in a Scouts rubbish pick up in Rotorua

    A 21-year-old man's been arrested after a child was hit by gel gun pellets, while taking part in a Scouts rubbish pick up in Rotorua


    On November 1 last year, a woman reported her 11-year-old was hit in the face by pellets fired by a man in a passing car on Pererika Street.

    The boy's injuries weren't serious but it was distressing.

    The man's also been charged in relation to similar offending against two others last October.

    He will appear in Rotorua District Court next Wednesday.
