A man has been charged in Queensland after allegedly firing at a police car in Ipswich and had a stand off with police for about one hour.

Police said officers responded to reports of a weapon being fired on Parker Street at Goodna, about 20 kilometres south-west of Brisbane, just before 8pm on Friday when shots were allegedly fired at a police vehicle, causing damaging a door.

The area was cordoned off while more police officers were called to the scene.

After 9pm, police claim the man armed with a rifle surrendered to specialist officers and was taken into custody without incident.

The 59-year-old Newtown man will be charged with two counts of acts intended to maim or disfigure and one count each of dangerous conduct with a weapon, unlawful possession of a Category B weapon (rifle) and wilful damage of police property.

He is expected to appear in Ipswich Magistrates Court on May 13.
