Po­lice re­cov­ered am­mu­ni­tion in Diego Mar­tin and seized a firearm in Mal­oney dur­ing two in­tel­li­gence-led op­er­a­tions this week.

In the first in­ci­dent, of­fi­cers at­tached to the West End Po­lice Sta­tion searched a bushy area along Up­per Cadet Hill, Diego Mar­tin, be­tween 8 p.m. and mid­night on Thurs­day 15 May. They re­cov­ered a Sig Sauer mag­a­zine loaded with fif­teen rounds of 9mm am­mu­ni­tion. The am­mu­ni­tion had been re­port­ed miss­ing dur­ing an an­ti-crime ex­er­cise ear­li­er in the week.

The op­er­a­tion, which was in­ci­dent-free, was sanc­tioned by se­nior of­fi­cers and car­ried out by West End Po­lice.
