As part of inquiries, detectives executed a search warrant at a home in Saltash Street, Yagoona, on Wednesday 28 April 2021,
Police seized four firearms, two revolvers and two pistols, along with ammunition and 2.27kg of cocaine, 250g of methylamphetamine, 5.27g of MDMA and 3.86g of heroin.

With the assistance of officers from South West Metro OSG and the Raptor Squad, detectives from SF Polar executed three search warrants in relation to the seized items, just after 7am today (Thursday 15 July 2021).
Two men, aged 36 and 30, were arrested at separate Punchbowl homes and a 23-year-old man was arrested at a Chester Hill home. A 37-year-old man was later arrested at a Canterbury home about 11.40am.
