The California Attorney General’s Office on Tuesday announced the seizure of illegally owned guns and an inert rocket launcher found a month ago while serving a search warrant at a Rancho Cordova home.
Law enforcement officials served the warrant Feb. 10 as part of a firearms investigation at a suspect’s Rancho Cordova home, according to a news release from the state Attorney General’s Office. California Department of Justice agents assisted the FBI Federal Bureau and the Sacramento Police Department in the investigation.
The Attorney General’s Office released photos of the confiscated weapons, which included the inert rocket launcher, a handgun modified to fire like a machine gun, a shotgun and two handguns.
“Our work to confront gun violence on our streets and in our courtrooms is saving lives, but we know the job is not finished,” Attorney General Rob Bonta said in the news release. “This arrest reflects the power of strong partnerships and a shared commitment to a safer California. Weapons of war have no place in civilian hands, and I am grateful they have been taken off our streets.”
A Rancho Corodva man, the suspect in the investigation, was arrested on suspicion of being a convicted felon in possession of firearms, possessing a machine gun and child endangerment, according to the news release. The Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office will be prosecuting the case.
The Attorney General’s Office did not release the arrested suspect’s name or any other circumstances that led to the firearms investigation.
