Guns, ammunition found in a suitcase by a dog walker in Wilmington, sparking police investigation.
This happened near Orchard Way, Wilmington. It was around 1 p.m. on Saturday, February 15th. He walked his dog in the fields. Something stuck out of the ground.
He thought it could be anything at first. It turned out to be a little black suitcase. He pulled it out and it was quite heavy. Inside, he discovered three guns.
One was a Colt 2011. Two were Glocks. Lots of ammunition were also packed in the case. He also saw two double-stack magazines. He thought it looked like serious weaponry.
Police confirmed the gun discovery. They went to the scene. Officers recovered the items for testing. Detectives are now investigating. They want to know how the guns got there.
The dog walker said the suitcase looked old. It seemed there about six months. This gun find isn’t linked to a shooting in Knockholt. A woman died there on Valentine’s Day.
The dog owner was shocked by his find. Police were nice and recorded everything. Then, they took the items away. He’s walked those fields for years. He’s never found anything like it before.
