two men face charges after guns and drugs were allegedly seized from a mississauga home recently.
peel regional police say officers executed a search warrant at a residence near lakeshore rd. e. and hydro rd. – west of dixie rd. – on dec. 29 and seized two loaded firearms, one equipped with an extended magazine, and an auto sear.
“an auto sear allows a semi-automatic firearm to be converted into one capable of automatic firing with a single, continuous pull of the trigger,” police said in a statement released saturday.
cops also allegedly seized drugs and canadian currency.
 rain dunham, 25, and jayden hurley, 24, both of mississauga, face charges after these guns were seized, along with drugs, from a mississauga residence on sunday, dec. 29, 2024.
