SDLP West Tyrone MLA Daniel McCrossan
has described the discovery of an illegal firearm in Strabane as a deeply
worrying. A military grade assault rifle was found at Lismourne Place along
with ammunition.
Mr McCrossan said:
“This discovery of this weapon is a deeply worrying development. Illegal and irresponsible
gun ownership is very dangerous and we have seen weapons of this type used in
illegal activity including the attempted murder of police.
“The
illegal storing of firearms is unacceptable and it allows those who committed
to violence to continue to put the public at risk. We must all be vigilant
against this threat and I would encourage anyone with any relevant information
to contact the police immediately.”
