On Tuesday, May 28, 2024, the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force recovered another illegal firearm,
following a traffic operation conducted in the Dennery Valley.
Officers were out on patrol when they had cause to stop a motorcycle being ridden by forty-year-
old (40) Camian Hamson, also known as “Tomma” of Aux Lyon, Dennery.
The officers conducted a search, which led to the discovery and seizure of one (1) 9mm calibre
pistol with one (1) magazine containing twelve (12) rounds of 9mm calibre ammunition. As a
result, Camian Hamson was arrested and subsequently charged for the offences of Possession of
