The suspect was apprehended during a targeted enforcement operation in a high-crime area, following a series of community complaints about drug-related activity. A subsequent search of the individual's residence yielded additional evidence, including drug paraphernalia and cash proceeds from illegal transactions. The accused is facing multiple charges, including possession of a restricted firearm, drug trafficking, and possession of proceeds of crime. The investigation is ongoing, and police are urging anyone with information to come forward. The BPS remains committed to removing illegal firearms and drugs from our streets, and holding accountable those who engage in criminal activity.
