One man has been charged in what Kamloops RCMP describe as a gang-related weapons seizure at a storage locker in a warehouse in that city.

Police say three semi-automatic rifles, one bolt-action rifle, a lever-action rifle, a shotgun, air-soft pistols, crossbows, nunchucks and possible explosives were seized in the Wednesday raid.

A 43 year old man and 23 year old woman arrived at the warehouse while the bust was underway and police say the two were searched and weapons and drugs, including cocaine, fentanyl and crack, were seized.

The man now faces drug and weapons charges while police say charges are being recommended against the woman but haven't yet been approved.

Stelco Faces Pressure Over 500 Job Cuts as Canada Issues Stern Warning

Canada’s Industry Minister Mélanie Joly has warned U.S. steelmaker Cleveland-Cliffs of severe consequences if it proceeds with plans to lay off hundreds of workers at its Stelco operations in Ontario.
