WINNIPEG -- A man from Ontario has been sentenced to three years in prison for trying to smuggle guns across the Manitoba-U.S. border.
The Canada Border Services Agency says Dorion Larry Ozykowski arrived at the entry point of Sprague last December.
He told border officers he didn't have any guns, but when they searched his vehicle they found a prohibited 9-mm handgun and magazine clip.
They also found ammunition.
Ozykowski, who is 67, pleaded guilty in Winnipeg provincial court to one Criminal Code offence and one Customs Act offence.
