Northwest Division officers are hoping to locate the original owners of some stolen property recovered last month, which has led to numerous firearm and stolen property charges against a man and woman.

On Feb. 28, 2016, the Northwest Division Special Project Team executed a search warrant at a residence in the area of 122 Avenue and 82 street associated to a stolen property investigation. Officers located a variety of items including three modified firearms, multiple rounds of ammunition, a number of electronic devices; including cellular phones, laptops and GPS units; as well as bank cards and other personal identity documents.

The Edmonton Police Service has now posted photos of the recovered property on the EPS Pinterest page in hopes that the original owner(s) will come forward to claim their belongings.
