posted (March 20, 2020)

He’s the well known former country manager for Williamson Industries, but yesterday 78 year old Lawrence Maclaren was arrested for trying to board a flight with a gun in his bag.  

In what was likely an oversight for the senior citizen, Macalren was searched at the airport screening area and the Security found a 22 revolver with 6 live rounds in his travel bag.  

And while it may have been an innocent oversight, Maclaren has since been arrested and charged for Possession of Firearm without a Gun License and Keeping Ammunition without a Gun License.  That is an offence which carries a mandatory remand.
