🔔 Shocking Evacuation Alert in Neath Port Talbot! 🚨
A quiet terraced street in Abergwynfi was thrown into chaos when homes were evacuated amid fears of a ‘booby-trapped’ property. Residents were advised to take shelter in a nearby miners’ hall as military specialists rushed to the scene. The reason? A chilling report from Maximin Carter’s ex-partner led to the discovery of a weapons stash, including an air rifle, a ninja sword, and more at her home! 🏡💥
Carter, who was in breach of a non-molestation order, left his ex-partner fearing for her life, suspecting potential bombs within plastic bottles filled with polystyrene. The place was such a mess that it “looked like booby traps had been set up,” according to court statements.
After a thorough search that declared no explosives but a haul of weapons, Carter admitted to owning the seized items. Despite having a history of weaponry interest, he seemed nonchalant, providing little information during police interviews.
Swansea Crown Court sentenced the 51-year-old to five and a half years in prison for possessing prohibited and offensive weapons. Some relief for the community, knowing this arsenal no longer poses a threat. ⚖️
This extraordinary incident has shocked the quiet neighbourhood, turning an ordinary Valentine’s Day into a day of high drama and relief as homes were declared safe. Stay safe, everyone! 🙏
