Vancouver police have confiscated several firearms and various other weapons, including a grenade launcher and bull whips, during a recent raid at a rooming house in the city’s Downtown Eastside.

The rooming house was believed to be fuelling “a supply line of contraband throughout the neighbourhood,” the Vancouver Police Department said in a Nov. 27 press release.
