A senior police official stated that the firearm was ‘miraculously returned’ yesterday. He was unable to say who removed the firearm and who brought it back.
The official confirmed that the revolver is the property of the City Constabulary.

According to reports, Fredericks, 34, who was unarmed, was shot by Bascom as he escaped from detention at the Bourda Market Outpost.
The Tiger Bay resident, who was described as mentally ill, was shot in his mother’s presence, as he ran out of the Outpost, where he was being detained on allegations of simple larceny, assault, and for assaulting a peace officer.
The accused is on $800,000 bail.
