WWII arms found in home

Police arrested a man yesterday after raiding a house and finding firearms and ammunition from the two world wars.

Homes were evacuated around the man’s house in Windmill Avenue, St Albans, Hertfordshire, after the dawn raid.

Items seized included hand grenades, rifles, a number of mortar shells, flare guns, hand guns, ammunition and a large collection of wartime memorabilia, which appears to have been excavated.
