Vancouver police say four men have been arrested after two guns were seized from a tent in a Downtown Eastside street encampment.
Police say the weapons found in the tent near East Hastings and Carrall Street included a loaded shotgun.
Investigators believe the weapons were being used for protection and to intimidate others in the encampment. A 40-year-old from Vancouver, a 23-year-old from Burnaby and two men in their 20s from Surrey are due in court in October to face multiple charges.
