RED DEER, Alta. – A man and a woman are facing almost 200 criminal charges after two police searches in central Alberta found
almost three dozen weapons along with stolen property and identification.
Red Deer RCMP say they searched a storage locker and a private home in November.
They seized 25 rifles, four shotguns, four crossbows, two pellet guns and a replica firearm.
The weapons were stored in a large hockey bag, a sleeping bag, a ski bag and gun cases.
RCMP also uncovered dirt bikes, chainsaws, a generator and electronics — all stolen — as well as stolen identity documents.
Police say the searches were part of a larger crime reduction effort focused on identifying prolific offenders through targeted investigations.
