In a coordinated law enforcement action on Pelican Street, authorities have apprehended and formally charged Linsford Lord following the discovery of an unlicensed firearm during a Saturday evening operation. The incident unfolded on December 28, 2025, when specialized police units observed suspicious activity near a Nissan Rogue vehicle.
According to official statements from Assistant Superintendent of Police Stacy Smith, the confrontation occurred at approximately 6:45 PM when officers approached a group of individuals adjacent to the vehicle. Lord, who occupied the driver’s seat, abruptly exited the automobile and attempted to distance himself from the scene. Law enforcement personnel witnessed the suspect retrieve a concealed object from beneath his shirt and discard it onto a nearby property, where it landed atop a canine shelter.
Subsequent investigation confirmed the discarded item as a 9mm pistol with its serial number deliberately removed. The weapon was accompanied by a magazine containing eight live rounds of ammunition. Police authorities have emphasized that forensic evidence and visual confirmation directly implicated Lord in the illegal possession of the firearm, leading to his exclusive charging in this incident.
The charges filed against Lord encompass multiple violations including possession of an unlicensed firearm, illegal keeping of ammunition, and possession of a weapon with obliterated identification markings. The case highlights ongoing efforts by joint task forces to combat illicit weapons circulation in urban communities.
