On Tuesday December 29th at approximately 07.25 p.m. during a control done by a unit of the 0-tolerance Team, a black vehicle with license plate P-7992 with very dark tinted windows was stopped, because of the occupants behaving very suspiciously when they saw the patrol.The vehicle in question was stopped in the vicinity of Cable T.V. on the Arch road. As the officer approached the vehicle, the driver stepped out and walked towards the officer. At that same time the officer noticed what looked like the handle of a revolver sticking out of the door compartment on the driver side of the vehicle. When the officers investigated the situation further, they realized that it was indeed the handle of a nickle plated revolver, calibre .38. This fire-arm was confiscated for further investigation. A small amount of marijuana, a switch blade and other items which can be used to commit armed robberies were also found. Both occupants of that vehicle with initials B.G. from the Dominican Republic and B.D. from Haiti were arrested in taken to the Philipsburg Police Station and handed over to the Narcotic and Fire Arm Division.
