Bikie behind bars after naked break-in

A bikie who allegedly broke into a western Sydney house in a home invasion has been refused bail.

A Lone Wolf bikie gang member who allegedly broke into a woman's home semi-naked and high on drugs will remain behind bars.

Erkan Keskin is accused of breaking into a stranger's house in Sydney's west on Tuesday night shirtless and carrying a gun.

When the 38-year-old later walked out of the Luddenham home and into the clutches of waiting police, he was naked.

Police will allege Keskin, who is a high-ranking bikie gang member, had taken drugs earlier in the day at his home nearby.

He is accused of arming himself with a Glock pistol and shooting several rounds into the air before entering the woman's home.

Keskin was hospitalised for a pre-existing medical condition and injuries to his legs from running through bushes.

He was charged with a string of offences, including shooting a firearm in a public place.

He was refused bail in Penrith Local Court on Thursday with his case adjourned to August 7.
