Gun found in cemetery during police exercise

One man was arrested for possession of a quantity of marijuana and a firearm found by officers of the Northern Division Task Force, during an Operation Strike Back 3 exercise conducted yesterday afternoon.

The exercise, coordinated by ACP Andy Belfon and Snr. Supt. Ramdeen, was conducted between 12 noon and 6 pm and included officers of the Northern Division Task Force, Area Central, the Guard and Emergency Branch and the Canine Unit.

During the exercise, officers conducted several searches in the Northern and North Eastern Divisions and held a 28-year-old El Socorro man for possession of a quantity of marijuana.

The same party of officers then proceeded to Boundary Road, Aranguez, where they found a pistol loaded with a magazine containing one round of ammunition hidden in a cemetery.
