Items seized in homes in Valkenburg and Heerlen included dozens of cartridges, navigation equipment and telephones. In Born, on the night of June 18-19 last year, a man was shot at his home on Koningsstraat. He escaped with a fright. Police found a hemp farm in his home. A connection with the shooting incident was not ruled out.
