A party of policemen on patrol duty went to Woolford Avenue in the vicinity of Camp Street, three days ago, where contact was made with an 18-year-old man.
A search on his person revealed a firearm with serial number and a magazine in a haversack he was carrying. He was told of the offence committed, cautioned and he replied, “Alex give me this gun officer.”
He was arrested and taken to the Alberttown Police Station where the firearm was lodged. Further investigations are ongoing.
