On November 5, two United States (US) residents were referred for a verification of their commercial declaration. Both the driver and passenger had declared that there were no firearms or weapons within their vehicle. However, during the examination, two undeclared handguns were found resulting in their arrest. The man and women were very cooperative during the examination and processing and it was evident that they were not familiar with the border crossing process or the area. Therefore, the determination was made to release them after a fine of CAN$500 was paid. However, the firearms were seized with no terms of release.
