Lethbridge police seize nearly three dozen firearms after a criminal harassment investigation leads officers to a west-side home in Lethbridge. Police say a 59-year-old man is charged with more than a dozen offences. According to reports, the investigation begins in British Columbia after police in Saanich, on Vancouver Island, receive a complaint that a woman received close to 60 “concerning” messages and videos. Following that report, the matter is investigated and the suspect is arrested, after which police in Lethbridge conduct a search of the man’s residence. Officers find a cache of 34 weapons in the home, according to the accounts. Police do not describe the types or conditions of the firearms in the information provided by the sources. The case centers on alleged criminal harassment of the woman and the subsequent seizure of firearms during the investigation’s expansion to Alberta. The man remains before the courts as the charges proceed.
