Main article content
A firearm has been recovered from a property following a warrant carried out on Grey Road, Walton yesterday afternoon, Thursday 2 March.
The weapon has been made safe and forensically recovered.
A search of the property is ongoing, and enquiries are currently being carried out.
Detective Inspector Peter McCullough said: “This is an important recovery as it means that there is one less weapon on our streets which could have been used to cause fear and intimidation in our communities.
“We rely on community intelligence to discover where weapons are being stored and who is using them and I would ask that the public continue to be our eyes and ears.”
