From the "only in the Wild West" department:

Police have arrested a man armed with a weapon made from the snout of a sawfish in Western Australia's Pilbara.

Police in Karratha were called to a house in Millars Well last night after reports a man was acting aggressively and threatening people with the sawfish sword.

The sawfish has a long snout, or rostrum, which looks like teeth, but are actually scales, on both sides.

It is alleged the man assaulted an officer by kicking him in the head.

Police say they then found the sawfish sword hidden at his property.

The man has been charged with assaulting a public officer, obstructing police and disorderly behaviour.

Police say they are trying to work out if they can charge him with being armed with a weapon, as technically he was armed with part of a fish.
