“The vehicle had three occupants and we ran a vehicle registration check and found the vehicle to be positive – meaning it was confirmed stolen,” Sambo said.

He added that they also found two unlicensed firearms. “All three suspects were arrested to be detained at the Bramley Police Station. They were charged with suspected house robbery, possession of a stolen vehicle as well as possession of unlicensed firearms. They will appear at the nearest court in due course.”
