Members of the San Juan Police Department SWAT Team executed search warrants late Tuesday afternoon.

The home was at 215 East 2nd Streets and Ruperts Auto Electric & Tire at 126 West Business 83.

A 37-year-old man and his 21-year-old son are reportedly in custody.

Investigators told Action 4 News news that they were allegedly trying to sell guns and bulletproof vests to an undercover officer.

Authorities reported seizing two semi-automatic weapons and one shotgun.
