Large quantities of guns and ammunition were found during a police search of a house of a Youtuber in Phitsanulok on Friday.
Police searched the house at a housing estate in tambon Ban Krang. The operation aimed to boost public safety ahead of the Christmas and New Year festivals.
The officers showed a court warrant to search the house to owner Trinsak Wachirasrisirikul, who runs a YouTube channel about firearms titled Tacticool BoB.
The search found 87 guns of various types, 4,576 rounds of ammunition and seven magazines, police said.
Mr Trinsak, 33, told police that he inherited the guns from his father. All of them were legally registered in his father’s name, he said.
The police are now seeing if the ownership of these weapons has been officially transferred to Mr Trinsak. If there is no record of ownership transfer, he could face charges related to the unauthorised possession of firearms and ammunition.
