Ontario Provincial Police in Lambton County are investigating after a shopping bag containing 11 handguns was found attached to a drone that had gotten stuck in a tree along the St. Clair River near the Canada-U.S. border.

Police say they seized the handguns, while St. Clair Township firefighters removed the drone from the tree.
No further information was made public. Police say updates will be provided as they become available.
