Lamaha Park businessman found with illegal gun outside popular nightclub

In the wee hours of Sunday, Police swooped in on a group of persons in front of a popular nightclub on Middleton Street, Campbellville, Georgetown, and nabbed Jason Carmichael with an illegal gun.

Police said ranks went to the location at about 03:15 hours, acting on information received.

“The Police team disembarked a force vehicle where they saw a group of persons gathered on the roadway outside the bar,” the statement said.

Police approached the group and Carmichael, a 38-year-old businessman of Lamaha Park, was found nabbed with a .38 revolver which contained one .38 spent shell. The serial number was filed off on the firearm.

Carmichael was asked if he was a licensed firearm holder and he reportedly told Police, “I got the firearm from another Rasta man.”

He was subsequently arrested and escorted to the Kitty Police Station.
