Region 3 Contraband Sales

Thursday, March 27, 2008 | 07:00pm

A sale of personal property seized by Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency officers will be held in the Cumberland Plateau area of Tennessee.

TWRA wildlife officers seize various items involved in wildlife violations each year. After the violators have been before the court, any of the items seized that have been declared to be contraband by the court are then ordered to be sold by the TWRA.

This sale will be held at the front door of the County Courthouses and will be sold to the highest bidder for cash. Sale of any firearms open only to persons 18 years of age or older and legally capable of possessing a firearm under federal and state laws.
