33 arrested in weapons, child porn sweep
ST. STEPHEN – Angry residents challenged the RCMP Thursday morning, demanding to know why, if police had enough evidence to raid homes and lay weapons, drug and child pornography charges against a number of individuals here, they didn’t keep the people they arrested locked up until their trials.
Surprised RCMP officers were caught off guard by the unexpected attack during a press conference to announce details of Operation Jerrican, a massive nine-month-long investigation in southwestern New Brunswick that resulted in 31 arrests in St. Stephen and two in Saint John and the seizure of at least five illegal firearms, one improvised explosive device, child pornography and cash as well as a number of other items not described in detail. The explosive device was seized in Saint John.
