POLICE yesterday, uncovered yet another arms cache, and this time it was at Garden of Eden, East Bank Demerara. Acting on a tipoff, police, around 08:30 hours yesterday, moved to Garden of Eden, where they made a significant discovery. Among the items found were a .38 Taurus Special Revolver along with 1,407 rounds of ammunition of various calibre. Other items found were: two bullet proof vests, two pairs black leather boots, three face masks, and a quantity of clothing in two black suitcases and a travelling bag on the dam. Police said the ammunition included .38, 7.62x39, .45, .44, .40, 9mm, .25, and .380 rounds; and 12-gauge cartridges. Sunday’s discovery comes close on the heels of another arms cache bust at Tabatinga, in the Southern Rupununi near Brazil about five weeks ago. On that occasion, the arms cache find yielded: three AK-47 rifles, six M15 rifles, four AK-47 magazines, an AK-47 drum magazine, one M15 magazine, and two anti-riot grenades. Late yesterday, no arrests were made in connection with the Garden of Eden discovery, but police are continuing their investigations.
