BURRILLVILLE, R.I. — Police in Burrillville have seized dozens of guns, several pounds of marijuana and some crossbows after responding to a domestic incident at 655 Log Rd. in Burrillville, Mayor Dennis Leahey tells NBC 10.

On Monday, Jan. 11, Burrillville police responded to a domestic incident which resulted in the arrest of two people, Bruce Quebec, 61, on a charge of domestic felony assault with a dangerous weapon and Daniel Quebec, 31, who was arrested on charges of domestic felony assault, domestic assault on a person over 60 and possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver.

While at the scene police discovered and seized 27 guns, three crossbows and 8 pounds of marijuana.

Major Dennis Leahey told NBC10 that a 911 call came in from Bruce Quebec's wife about a domestic incident between her husband and son involving a knife. The father and son, who both live at the home, were injured during the fight and transported to the Rhode Island hospital via rescue.

"Bruce was treated and released and I don't know what the status of the son is at this point," Leahey said.
