Four Chatham residents are facing charges after Chatham-Kent police searched a residence on Gray Street in Chatham and found a rifle and some illegal drugs.
Police said members of the CKPS Intelligence Unit teamed up with the Critical Incident Team to execute a search warrant at the residence Monday afternoon.
Officers said during that search, police seized approximately $1,300 worth of suspected methamphetamine along with some digital scales, packaging material, and cell phones.
Police also found a switchblade and a loaded SKS non-restricted semi-automatic rifle with an overcapacity magazine and an attached bayonet along with some ammunition.
Officers said a 42-year-old Chatham man, a 40-year-old Chatham man, a 28-year-old Chatham man, and a 29-year-old Chatham woman were all arrested and charged in connection with the case. They were all taken into custody pending a bail hearing.
