Alert police ranks yesterday intercepted two men who were in possession of a gun in the vicinity of the Diamond Hospital.
A release stated that the ranks of a mobile saw a “suspicious looking male” enter a public transportation vehicle in front of the Diamond Hospital.
As the ranks approached the vehicle, the driver reportedly sped away. The ranks gave chase and subsequently intercepted the vehicle and arrested its driver and occupant.
An unlicensed .32 pistol with 12 live matching rounds, which the driver threw out of the vehicle, was immediately retrieved.
The 26-year-old driver, of James Street Albouystown and the 28-year-old occupant, who is a security guard, of Perry Street, Tucville, have been taken into custody, while the vehicle was lodged.
And at around 19:20 hrs on Tuesday, ranks of the Police Force’s Narcotics Branch acting on information, proceeded to a location at Dennis Street, Sophia, and arrested a 25-year-old male resident with an unlicensed .32 revolver without ammunition.
