Two Londoners are charged after a police raid in the southwest end turned up a gun, ammunition, and over $15,000 worth of marijuana.
The London police guns and drugs section, which includes members of the RCMP and OPP, searched a home on Wonderland Rd. S Thursday. Officers seized 1,496g of marijuana bud, 5g of cannabis resin, a 9mm handgun, a loaded extended 9mm drum magazine for a Glock, four loaded 9mm Glock magazines, an unloaded 9mm Glock magazine, and $70 in cash.
A 32-year-old man and a 33-year-old woman, both from London, are charged with possession of a Schedule II substance for the purpose of trafficking, possession of a loaded regulated firearm, possession of a prohibited or restricted weapon, possession of a firearm with an altered serial number, and careless use, handling and storage of ammunition.
The man is also charged with possession of a firearm while prohibited.
The man and woman made their first court appearances on the charges Thursday.
