Given the device was found during a search warrant, it suggests that law enforcement had prior intelligence about potential criminal activity at the residence. This incident may be connected to broader efforts by the Pct. 1 Constable's office to crack down on illicit activities in the area. Residents of Piney Point Village and surrounding communities should be aware of the constable's proactive approach to addressing potential threats.
