A NEW policing operation has been launched in New Providence, resulting in the arrest of nine people, 530 matters taken to court and 567 drivers being cited for various traffic offences.
Operation "New Breed" was conducted by the officers of the Central and Southwestern Division last week.
Three of the arrests were for immigration offences.
Other offences included unlicensed and uninspected vehicles, no identification plate, causing obstruction and parking in a no parking area. Police also found a small quantity of marijuana after trying to stop a motorcyclist who was able to escape them.
Also on Friday, acting on a tip, the Drug Enforcement Unit (DEU) found two handguns and one shotgun in less than four hours. The first firearm - a shotgun, was found in Flamingo Gardens in the area of Indiana Drive. One handgun was found at Marshall Road and another in an abandoned building at Sunset Park, Carmichael Road.
