A Calibishie man is expected to face the court tomorrow following his arrest for possession of over 2000 rounds of ammunition.

    There must be a war going on in Dominica. If one man have all that ammunition i hope they question and get the smuggling ring rounded up.

    What the man wants all that ammo for. He wants to start a war. That is even too much to protect a weed patch. I’m getting scared in Dominica now. Throw the book at him when he comes to court and no bail.

    He had enough ammunition to open a store. The police should try to elicit how he got these guns and ammunition into the country undetected. This guy is a merchant of murder.

    Guns are instruments of death. I have no sympathy for people who are caught with illegal guns and ammunition.

    This guy is ready for a war :lol: i guess he could say that he is a regional arms dealer, and was just waiting for his final documents to come through. :-P or he could say that he was a collector, and previously had a permit for each of his weapons but got destroyed in Erica. :-D or…or we’ll just have to wait and see what crafty excuse he comes up with :lol:

    Dca hot like fire. Everywhere you turn is guns and ammo being seized by the police. If we have to follow trends it’s easy to see the bigger picture. Dca in trouble. People don’t store guns and ammo like that because they love to see them unless you are a collector in which case we don’t have that in Dca. The volcano called Dca is bubbling and that is scary. Imagine what the police is not getting their hands on if they can confiscate this large amount.
