The use of a silencer is the nightmare scenario that gun-control advocates have warned about. They say can help shooters escape detection and inflict more carnage.

15 guns were seized from Donald Halpenny's garage workshop, including three loaded handguns, along with two silencers, Kevlar body armour, a police duty belt, handcuffs and baton.

Police have released more details and photos from two recent Saskatoon drug busts, where 1,400 fentanyl pills and seven handguns were seized.
