St Catherine, Jamaica — Lawmen assigned to the St Catherine North Division have arrested a 40-year-old man in connection with an alleged breach of the Firearms Act following an early-morning incident in Spanish Town on Monday.
Reports are that about 4:45 a.m., police responded to loud explosions heard at a bar along Walks Road, Spanish Town. Upon their arrival, they observed a man acting suspiciously with a noticeable bulge in his waistband.
The police accosted and searched the individual, during which they allegedly found a nine-millimetre pistol fitted with a magazine containing 13 rounds of ammunition.
