A 35-year-old London man is facing nearly half a dozen charges after police seized three guns, including a loaded glock, from a home in Old South.

Officers with the London police guns and gangs section and emergency response unit searched the home on Duchess Avenue over the weekend. The search turned up a loaded Glock 35 GEN4 with ten rounds of ammunition in the magazine, an MK-10 Derya shotgun, a Winchester .22 rifle, and hundreds of rounds of various ammunition.

A London man was arrested. He has since been charged with three counts of careless storage of a firearm or ammunition and one count each of carrying a concealed weapon and handling a firearm in a careless manner.

The man is scheduled to appear in London court in relation to the charges on November 29.
