Fire Leads Police To Guns, Drugs

A pair of semi-automatic guns, cocaine, and marijuana were among the items found following a house fire in northwest London.

Firefighters and police were called to the home on Limberlost Rd. around 9:40am on Wednesday after fire broke out in the basement. When emergency crews arrived they found a man outside of the house with minor injuries.

The fire investigation led members of the London police guns and drugs section to get a search warrant for the home. Inside they found two semi-automatic rifles, two loaded pump-action 12 gauge shotguns, ammunition, a high capacity magazine, 3g of cocaine, 400g of marijuana, a scale, and packaging material. Officers also seized $6,270 in cash.

A 24-year-old man, a 27-year-old man, and a 61-year-old woman, all from London, face 17 drug and firearms charges.
