A blockade of the city was set up, several people were checked and brought to official premises in order to establish the circumstances under which RS was injured. Through these activities, by checking the armored vehicle of the 'Audi' brand, and the person LB (29), a citizen of Bosnia and Herzegovina, close to RS, who was in it, police officers found a 'Valter' brand pistol with 15 rounds of ammunition without a serial number, which was confiscated," the statement states.
