A man from South Australia has found himself in hot water after a startling discovery was made on his property in the Flinders Ranges. The police, accompanied by members of the Serious Firearm Crime Investigation Section, arrived at the man's residence as part of their investigation into the theft of guns from a nearby property over a year ago. The property, located over 300km north of Adelaide, was thoroughly searched by the officers.
During the search, officers were able to uncover a hidden stash of weapons buried under a wool bale and logs. The collection included five rifles, a pistol, and a large number of rounds of ammunition. The weapons were promptly seized and will undergo forensic examination.
As a result of the discovery, the 33-year-old owner of the property was taken into custody and charged with multiple serious offenses. These include criminal trespass, theft, and breaching an intervention order. In addition, he is also facing several weapons charges, one of which carries a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison.
The accused was denied police bail and is scheduled to appear before the Port Augusta Magistrates Court later today. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible gun ownership and the severe consequences that can arise from the illegal possession of firearms.
