Two men were ar­rest­ed and a firearm and nar­cotics seized dur­ing po­lice ex­er­cis­es in the West­ern and East­ern Di­vi­sions on Fri­day.

At 9:11 a.m., of­fi­cers of the West­ern Di­vi­sion, in­clud­ing W/Cpl Cu­pid, Ag. Cpl Pe­ters and Cpl Frith, act­ed on in­for­ma­tion about a man in a Hon­da Vezel with a firearm. Of­fi­cers found the ve­hi­cle in a su­per­mar­ket car park near an ATM. W/Cpl Cu­pid and WPC Joseph ap­proached and saw one man in­side.

Po­lice iden­ti­fied them­selves, in­formed the man of the re­port and searched him. Of­fi­cers found a Spring­field Ar­mory Hell­cat pis­tol with an emp­ty mag­a­zine. The man said he did not hold a Firearm User’s Li­cence and that his wife was the li­cence hold­er. A search of the ve­hi­cle found noth­ing else.
