October 4th 01:00 UTC
The Los Santos Investigation Bureau was notified of a residence containing multiple large caliber firearms.
A joint task force composed of 3 members of SWAT, and 1 member of the Investigation Bureau, with the guidance of the Investigator the team identified the residence on Barbareno Rd. Chumash. Once the residence was located SWAT deployed their operatives in tactical gear and a heavily armored vehicle expecting to come across heavy resistance at the residence.
Upon arrival the team secured the area, and approached with caution. Once they reached the door the residence was breached with the use of shotgun loaded breaching charges.
The operatives entered the residence, clearing the building, containing no suspects within. Once cleared the investigator went to work searching the premises, eventually locating a stash of weapons and narcotics contained behind the electric fireplace. The contraband items were removed from the residence transported to the local precinct where they were searched, tagged and sent for destruction.
