Gun Seizure in Nanaimo, October 11th

What is the world coming to? In fair Nanaimo is where our story unfolds…

A man of 59, named Raymond John Waller is arrested and faces eight charges related to firearms and illegal weapons possesion. Right here in fair Nanaimo. On Manning street in Harewood… and they say that Harewood is a safe nice area. Not that it isn’t, but it has a reputation for being the shadier part of town. This is manning street:

As you can see, it’s a short street. Apparently some fellow in the area shot some pictures of the crime scene cleanup in action, and I even got pics of the man himself:

Swat was there, all decked out in their goodies. This is one of the biggest arms seizures in Nanaimo history, and I’ve been having trouble googling for information about it. I was able to come up with a couple of links for the full story:

Enjoy! Maybe Nanaimo will end up like Surrey and their 6 shot dead execution style* in the apartment.

*They weren’t actually shot execution style. Police are not releasing any information yet as to how exactly they were shot.
