Two women have been taken into custody following the seizure of a M16 assault rifle in Rockfort, St. Andrew yesterday.
Two magazines and 31 rounds of ammunition were also found during the special operation on Commission Road.
According to the Elletson Road Police, about 5:30 in the afternoon the raid was in progress when a property was searched and the firearm and ammunition found in the ceiling of a room. The women were subsequently arrested.
Nice find and jail time would be even better.
Stiff sentences are needed to send a deterrent to the rest. There are way too many guns in Jamaica.
