Efforts to rid the streets of the illegal possession of firearms yielded positive results when members of the Delft Crime Prevention Unit arrested a 32-year-old male for the possession of an unlicensed firearm and ammunition. The members were busy with stop and search operations in the Delft area due to the ongoing gang violence and robberies in the area when they searched the male and found a 9mm pistol with ammunition in his possession. The suspect did not have a license to possess a firearm.
\nThe suspect is due to make a court appearance in the Bellville Magistrates court on Monday.
