One man was ar­rest­ed and a firearm with am­mu­ni­tion seized dur­ing an in­tel­li­gence-led op­er­a­tion in the cen­tral di­vi­sion on Mon­day.

Around 5:00 pm, of­fi­cers of the Cen­tral Di­vi­sion Task Force, Area North, to­geth­er with mem­bers of the Trinidad and To­ba­go Reg­i­ment, pro­ceed­ed to Devin­ish Hill, along Ca­paro Val­ley Bras­so Road, Tabaquite.

There, they en­tered a veg­e­tat­ed area off the road­way and trekked ap­prox­i­mate­ly 100 me­tres in­to the wood­ed area. While search­ing a bam­boo patch, the team dis­cov­ered a black 12-gauge shot­gun wrapped in a black piece of cloth, along with three rounds of 12-gauge am­mu­ni­tion. The items were seized, and in­ves­ti­ga­tions are con­tin­u­ing.
