Upon arrival, office­rs determined that the address provided was not valid. Given concern for public safety, patrol offic­ers secured the area and, with the assis­tance of the Emergen­cy Response Team and K-9, searched three residential buildin­gs. Through the cour­se of the investigat­ion, officers identi­fied and entered a suspect condominium unit. A 31-year-old man was located inside along with a quant­ity of unsecured fir­earms.
