A man accused of terrorising a city by taking a man hostage and holding off police during a three-hour siege is the son of pro-gun politician Kim Vuga.
At about 7.45pm on Friday, 29-year-old Jaimie Ronald Madden allegedly threatened a taxi driver with a firearm and forced him to drive to a Southport service station on the Gold Coast.
Madden then allegedly carjacked three vehicles and threatened multiple people with a 'huge hand pistol'.
He was charged with 15 offences on Saturday morning, including armed robbery, unlawful possession of a weapon and carjacking.
