Yesterday, Sunday 10 July, ACT Policing officers executed a search warrant and arrested a woman for the possession of illegal firearms, materials and substances.
About 6pm, members of ACT Policing’s Proactive Intervention and Diversion team executed a search warrant at a Kaleen residence.
They located and seized a replica shotgun, replica shotgun cartridges, live shotgun cartridges, live 0.22 rounds, two conducted energy weapons, two prohibited knives, commercial grade fireworks and modified fireworks.
The unknown nature of the fireworks required ACT Bomb technicians to assess the safety of the materials prior to ACT Policing seizing them.
Police also seized methamphetamine, cash, phones, a pill press and found documents alluding to the sale and trafficking of a prohibited substance.
The 28-year-old woman, was on bail including conditions not to have drugs or firearms (real or fake) in her possession.
The woman has been charged with a range of offences including trafficking a controlled drug other than cannabis, possessing prohibited firearms, possessing a drug of dependence, four counts of possessing a prohibited weapon, 2 counts of possessing ammunition, and unauthorised possession of a prohibited dangerous substance.
She is set to face the ACT Magistrates Court today.
