Area police agencies seized more than six dozen illegally possessed firearms during a raid on a Sherman Township home Tuesday in the 25000 block of Hiawatha Drive, according to a release from Michigan State Police.
No arrests were made but evidence will be forwarded to federal officials and the St. Joseph County prosecuting attorney for possible charges, investigators said.
During execution of the search warrant, detectives located 79 firearms, some of which were illegally modified, including short-barreled rifles and shotguns. At least one was reported stolen, according to Fifth District MSP Lt. DuWayne Robinson.
Detectives found a small quantity of methamphetamine and signs of distribution of illegal narcotics, including suspected LSD, according to the press release.
The Southwest Enforcement Team is a multi-jurisdictional task force supported in part by federal Justice Department grants.
Why were there no arrest with illegal weapons that were modified and drugs??
I’m with you, Shelly. Illegal guns, drugs, but no one in jail.
