Police operations get guns and ammunition off the streets

By BBN Staff: Through various operations this week, police have managed to get several guns and a cache of live ammunition off the streets.

On Tuesday, July 13th, 2021, between 12:00 p.m., and 12:45 p.m., officers searched an empty lot on Police Street and found a .38 revolver. They later searched an empty lot on Antelope Street, where they found a homemade firearm. Also on Tuesday, officers searched an empty lot on Curl Thompson Street and found a bag containing 40 live GFL .9mm rounds and six Aguila brand live .38 rounds. In all instances, no one was in the area at the time of the discoveries, so the weapons and ammunition were sealed, labeled, and deposited as found property.

On Wednesday, between the hours of 2:00 a.m., and 9:00 a.m., police conducted a joint operation on the Hydro Road, Cayo District on an unoccupied farm, where they found a 16 Gauge single-action shotgun, along with eight Aguilar brand and four Sellier & Bellot brand live round of ammunition.
