Eleven men were apprehended and transported to the Anna Regina Police Station after police at 70KM, a location off Buckhall-Barama Company, found an AK-47 rifle in a truck that was heading into the Interior.
According to reports, police did a stop and search shortly before midnight, Tuesday night, and found the weapon in the truck. It was reportedly in a bag.
Twenty-two-year-old Joel Joseph, of Bartica, has since admitted to being the owner of the gun. The police said that there were 12 matching rounds.
Joseph was traveling in a truck, which was headed for Melagie, a location in the interior.
