A vigilant resident’s timely report and a swift police response have led to the recovery of a hidden Beretta pistol and a stolen Toyota Camry in separate operations undertaken by the Gombe State Police Command.
The Command’s Police Public Relations Office I’mr Buhari Abdullahi, said the first operation was triggered after a concerned resident discovered a Beretta pistol concealed beneath a stone near Brave Rock Sport/Recreational Park in the New GRA area of Gombe and alerted the police.
“The firearm was promptly reported to the Police, and detectives immediately responded to the scene, where the Beretta pistol with an empty magazine was recovered.
Investigation is ongoing to determine the ownership of the weapon and the circumstances surrounding its concealment,” the PPRO said.
