San Ignacio, CAYO. Monday, February 1, 2016. TNC: The Gang Suppression Unit continues its relentless pursuit of drugs and ammunition.

Their latest operation on Sunday afternoon, led members of the GSU to Mahogany Street in Belize City where there were reports of shot being fired.

Upon their arrival, police say they met a man near an abandoned house and a search of his person did not find anything incriminating.

A search in the yard of the house however, led to the discovery of a nine millimeter pistol and a magazine loaded with nine live rounds.
