One Less Gun on Orange Walk Streets

Just a few hours after the Quick Response Team, acting on information received, made another discovery – this time a weapon. No ammunition was found with that weapon, but it is still one more gun off the streets of Orange Walk.

“At about four p.m. the Orange Walk Quick Response Team conducted a search of an empty lot located on Hospital Crescent close to the Sandy Hunter Library where upon searching under a log they found a point thirty-two pistol model P32 bearing serial number P055700 with an empty magazine. It was wrapped in a black plastic. The firearm was taken to the Orange Walk Police Station where it was deposited as found property. We intend to do as much possible as we can; definitely forensics is not out of the question. For our own interests it would be good to know whether this was used in another crime or not.”
