Authorities detained Daglas Natukunda, a 27-year-old broadcaster from Rukiga FM, after discovering him carrying a toy weapon Saturday afternoon. Officers apprehended the Nyangorogoro Village resident at Kyerero Village around 1:30 PM during a targeted police operation. District Police Commander SP Moses Karakire Musinguzi led the arrest following community intelligence reports.

The detention followed citizen complaints made during a recent community safety meeting at Nyaikunama football pitch. Kigezi Regional Police Spokesperson Elly Maate praised public cooperation with law enforcement agencies. Officers continue examining why Natukunda possessed the replica firearm. Authorities encourage continued community vigilance against potential security threats.
