A police raid on a car lurking in Għargħur paid off as they found a pistol and two knives. The man who was in the parked car on Triq Stiefnu Zerafa has been arrested and is being held at the Naxxar police station, the police said.
The Rapid Intervention Unit carried out the raid at around 3pm on Monday, after receiving reports that the car's presence was raising suspicions that a theft was being planned.
