Ten AK-47 assault rifles found on Corentyne public road, one arrested, two vehicles held

Last Updated on Saturday, 13 June 2026, 0:03 by Writer

Police and agents of the Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU) have seized twenty-three AK-47 assault rifles and 504 rounds of 7.62x39mm rounds of ammunition, a well-placed source said.

The cache of arms and ammunition were seized at Schoonard, West Bank Demerara, the source said.

A Venezuelan man was arrested and a Spanish-speaking man escaped.

The arrested man has been identified as Jonathan Gans, 28, of Third Street, Grove, East Bank Demerara.

Three Guyanese are currently before the courts for the ten AK-47 assault rifles that were seized last month in Berbice.
