Israeli police arrested two suspects in Tamra after finding a Glock handgun concealed inside a hat in their vehicle, according to police spokesman Or Ravid. The suspects, residents of Rahat, face an indictment.
Police arrested two suspects from Rahat in Tamra on Wednesday afternoon after officers found a Glock handgun concealed inside a hat during a vehicle search, police spokesman Or Ravid reported. The suspects are expected to face weapons possession charges.
The arrest follows a pattern of police crackdowns on illegal weapons in Arab Israeli communities. Earlier this week, police seized two handguns, a fragmentation grenade, and cannabis vapes in the villages of Jadeidi-Makr and Abu Snan. Last week, a 16-year-old was arrested in Tamra for carrying a loaded Glock on an electric bicycle.
The case remains in early stages; details on the circumstances of the stop and the suspects' legal representation were not immediately available.
