At around 5:15 am yesterday, ranks from the Sparendaam Police Station acted on information received and went to a two-bedroom house at Robert Road, Plaisance, East Coast Demerara and they found an illegal shotgun and suspected ganja.
A release from the police said that a search was conducted in the first bedroom of the house, in the presence of the two occupants who were there at the time (a 30-year-old labourer of the said address and a 23-year-old plumber who resides next door). During the search, the ranks found a 12-gauge double-barrel shotgun with no serial number and four live matching cartridges.
