Weapons Seized From Newtownabbey Business Presmises
Four business premises in Newtownabbey and Carrickfergus have been searched and inspected by detectives from the PSNI's Paramilitary Crime Task Force (PCTF) on Wednesday 29th May.
During one of the searches two BB guns were recovered and have been removed for further forensic examination.
No arrests have been made and enquiries are ongoing.
Following the operation, Detective Inspector Corrigan said: "The inspections were part of an ongoing investigation into suspected criminality linked to the South East Antrim UDA.
"Working with our partner agencies, we remain committed in our efforts to bring those who profit from criminality before the courts.
"We rely on combined efforts, including the support of local communities. It's crucial that any suspected illicit activity is flagged so that action can be taken, and I'm appealing to anyone with information to contact us on 101."
Alternatively, you can submit a report online using our non-emergency reporting form via www.psni.police.uk/makeareport/
The independent charity Crimestoppers can also be contacted anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at crimestoppers-uk.org/
