Nevertheless, that’s where Niagara police found the double-barreled weapon when they raided a crack house in a Queenston Street apartment in St. Catharines Thursday.
Police had heard there might be a weapon inside the house before they executed a search warrant and also found ammunition for it as well as some crack cocaine and marijuana.
“The firearm was located in the bedroom stuffed under a pillow and appeared to be in working condition,” a police spokesman said, adding members of the St. Catharines Street Crime Unit had begun receiving information a week ago about a man living on Queenston Street selling crack cocaine. Further information suggested that this male was in possession of a firearm.
A 23-year-old St. Catharines man faces drug possession and trafficking charges as well as charges of possession of a prohibited firearm, careless storage of a firearm and proceeds of crime.
