ILLEGAL FIREARM RECOVERED

Nassau, Bahamas - According to reports, shortly after 4:00pm on Friday, 16th March, 2018 Anti-Gang and Firearms officers acting on information, conducted  a search of a vacant lot on Market Street and recovered a Glock .40 Pistol .

Investigation continues into this matter.

47 TICKETED BY MOBILE DIVISION OFFICERS DURING 48 HOUR PERIOD 

Mobile Division targeted patrols intended to reduce crime, and to minimize the ability for criminals to commit criminal activity, resulted in the arrest of nineteen (19) persons during the past 48 hours for possession of dangerous drugs and outstanding court warrants. 

Additionally forty-seven (47) drivers were ticketed for various traffic violations.

POLICE ARE APPEALING TO ANYONE WITH INFORMATION REGARDING ANY CRIME, NO MATTER HOW SMALL OR INSIGNIFICANT (THE TIP) MAY SEEM, TO ANONYMOUSLY CALL POLICE AT 919 OR CRIME STOPPERS AT 328-TIPS (8477) (NEW PROVIDENCE) OR 1-242-300-8477 (FAMILY ISLANDS)

PREVENTION CRIME TIP – If a crime occurs – report it!
 
Everyone should consider it his/her responsibility to report crime. Many criminals target favorite areas and have predictable methods of operation. When you report all the facts about a crime, it helps the police assign officers in the places where crimes are occurring or where they are most likely to occur. If you don’t report crime, this allows the criminal to continue to operate without interference. 
In many cases, it is the information provided by victims and witnesses that leads to the arrest of a criminal. So tell the police as much as you can; no fact is too trivial. The police need the eyes and ears of all citizens.
