What appeared to be a quiet beach outing in St Thomas quickly turned into a dramatic police operation after a couple relaxing along the shoreline was suddenly arrested and found with an illegal firearm.
The man and woman were reportedly lying along a beach near the Bergonia Resorts in Lysson when lawmen swooped in on Wednesday afternoon, acting on information.
Reports are that about 2:45 p.m., officers moved in and conducted a search, during which a black 9mm Beretta handgun along with 10 rounds of ammunition was allegedly discovered in a black bag said to be in the woman’s possession.
