Firearm and Taser found at home as armed police swoop on vehicle in Bristol

Three people have been arrested after a firearm, Taser and drugs were seized during a raid in north Bristol.

Armed officers stopped a vehicle on Church Road, in St George/Redfield at 9.15pm on Friday.

An address in Easton was also searched as part of the same intelligence-led operation.

Officers found a firearm, Taser and a 'significant quantity' of suspected Class A drugs at the property.

A spokesperson for Avon and Somerset Police said: "Two women, aged 27 and 29, and a 27-year-old man have been arrested and are currently on bail.

"Enquiries are ongoing."

If you have any suspicions over drug dealing taking place in your community, call police on 101, or you can give the information anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or online.
