A man accused of knifing two police officers on the Gold Coast was repeatedly Tasered and only stopped his attack when an officer drew his gun and threatened to shoot, court documents claim.
Police will allege Michael Harley Lappan, 31, injured the officers with a knife during an incident at a Palm Beach petrol station on Tuesday night.
Lappan didn't face Southport Magistrates Court on Wednesday after being arrested on several charges including two counts of unlawful wounding.
Court documents state staff at the service station had rung police after Lappan spent 40 minutes obstructing an automatic door at the business.
Police Tasered Lappan twice after he became aggressive towards them, the documents claim, with Lappan pulling one of the metal Taser barbs from his body before producing a six-centimetre flick-knife.
It's alleged Lappan then stabbed one officer in the thigh before he was Tasered a third time.
Another officer then wrestled with Lappan for the knife, sustaining a cut to his wrist in the struggle.
Lappan allegedly continued to try to bite the officer despite being Tasered a fourth time and sprayed with pepper spray.
Only when an officer drew his gun and told Lappan to stop resisting or be shot did he end his resistance.
Lappan's lawyer Chris Freeman didn't apply for bail and the matter was adjourned until April 15.
The two injured officers have since been released from hospital.
