Peace River RCMP say a report of a break-and-enter at an oil site led to the seizure of two firearms and the arrest of three people. 

Mounties say they got a report of the break-and-enter on July 18. 

A suspect vehicle was located along Highway 986. 

Three people in the vehicle were arrested. Two long-barrel guns were seized. 

Three residents of the Woodland Cree First Nation have been arrested. One was already wanted on outstanding warrants. 

The one with the outstanding warrants was released on conditions; the other two were remanded. 

All three are due in Peace River court on July 27.
