Firearm, weapons seized

A firearm, drugs, and multiple weapons have been seized after police raided a Berwick home on Monday 3 August.

A 36-year-old man was arrested at the scene after police executed a search warrant at a McNaughton Crescent address about 9.30am.

There, investigators allegedly found multiple drugs of dependence, multiple prohibited weapons, a firearm, ammunition, stolen registration plates and homemade registration plates.

Police were led to search the property after officers attempted to intercept a white Volkswagen Golf in Cranbourne on Sunday 28 June.

It’s alleged the vehicle had driven off at speed before crashing into lights and causing multiple serious collisions, a Victoria Police spokesperson said.

The officers attended the address of the vehicle’s registered owner to make enquiries. Victoria Police say the owner stated the vehicle had been stolen, but further investigations revealed this was not the case.

The man who was arrested has been remanded in custody while a 36-year-old woman was interviewed at the property and will receive a summons to attend court at a later date.
