The Winnipeg Police Service’s Street Crime Unit seized crack, guns and gang paraphernalia in a Sunday night bust in the 500 block of Furby Street.
Police said their investigation led to the arrest of man and seizure of 1.73 grams of crack cocaine.
That arrest, in turn, led to the search of the Furby Street residence, which uncovered two sawed-off 12-gauge shotguns (one loaded), two 9mm carbine rifles (one sawed-off and with ammunition), and a 7.62mm bolt-action rifle.
Police said the arrest and the seized items are related to gang activity.
