St. Louis, MO – Police recovered multiple firearms and suspected narcotics last week during a disturbance call in the 1900 block of South Grand, according to the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department.
According to police, District 2 officers responded to the disturbance when they uncovered the weapons. Authorities said the discovery led to the arrest of a 29-year-old man who allegedly had outstanding warrants. Officers did not immediately release additional details about the number or type of firearms seized, nor the nature of the suspected narcotics.
The response is part of the department’s continued initiative to remove firearms from circulation and reduce violent crime in the city. Police noted that disturbance calls are among the more unpredictable situations officers encounter, often leading to the recovery of illegal weapons or individuals wanted on active warrants.
Officials said the arrest and seizure demonstrate ongoing enforcement efforts in the South Grand corridor, a busy stretch that sees a mix of residential and commercial traffic. The department emphasized that officers are working daily to address safety concerns and remove illegal firearms from neighborhoods across St. Louis.
Anyone with information about illegal weapons or related activity is encouraged to contact the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department or CrimeStoppers. Tips can be made anonymously.
