Po­lice ar­rest­ed nine peo­ple yes­ter­day—in­clud­ing five Venezue­lan na­tion­als in the coun­try il­le­gal­ly—and seized a pis­tol along with quan­ti­ties of am­mu­ni­tion.

Of­fi­cers con­duct­ed an ex­er­cise be­tween 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Thurs­day at an aban­doned struc­ture at East Dry Riv­er, Port-of-Spain. There, they dis­cov­ered a Beretta pis­tol wrapped in a pair of cam­ou­flage trousers, with a mag­a­zine con­tain­ing 15 rounds of am­mu­ni­tion.

They al­so found a crate con­tain­ing 50 rounds of as­sort­ed am­mu­ni­tion and one mag­a­zine dur­ing the search.
