Ghost Gun in NB

According to CBS 12 in Providence, a New Bedford man is facing charges after police say he was in possession of a "ghost gun." The 20 year old Joshua Deleon was arrested after police executed a search warrant at an apartment on Locust street. While inside, police said they found a semi automatic 9mm handgun loaded with 15 rounds of ammo, along with more than $2700 in cash.

 

“Ghost Guns" are illegal because they don't have serial numbers, making them untraceable that can be 3D-printed or assembled by purchasing individual parts or a kit. Deleon is charged with possession of ammunition without an FID Card, storing a large-capacity firearm improperly, possession of a large-capacity firearm, and unlawful possession of a high-capacity feeding device.
