A major haul of guns has been seized by Kamloops Mounties as part of a raid Tuesday in Aberdeen.
RCMP say they confiscated more than a dozen guns, on top of suspected drugs, stolen property and vehicles as part of a search warrant.
“On Tuesday May 20, 2025, the Kamloops RCMP Detachment’s Crime Reduction Unit (CRU), with the support of the Southeast District Emergency Response Team (ERT), executed a search warrant on Sifton Avenue,” said the RCMP in a release.
“The warrant’s execution was associated to a firearms investigation initiated by CRU, which proved to be productive given the number of items located and seized in the residence,” continued Corporal Crystal Evelyn, Kamloops RCMP Detachment spokesperson.
The bust was high-profile, as the RCMP called in the Emergency Response Team amid concerns about the weapons they were moving in to seize.
Mounties say one person was arrested and later released.
Charges are expected to be laid.
