Going after a driver for a piece of litter led conservation officers to find guns and bullets.

Officers pulled over a driver in the Peace Region after a beer can was tossed out of the truck window, a post on the BC Conservation Officer Service Facebook’s page said Wednesday.

After stopping the truck, they found the occupants were had two guns and ammunition, neither of which had a possession and acquisition licence for.

Another reminder not to be a litter bug.
