An assault rifle, with close to a hundred rounds of ammunition, and other evidence were found in the trunk of a parolee's car.
The startling discovery makes police believe they may have prevented a tragedy.
An alert parole agent and city police just may have headed off a violent confrontation before it ever happened when they acted on their instincts and checked out the car of a former inmate when he came to check in with his parole agent, reported Fox 29s Dave Schratwieser.
When 29-year-old Alexander Rivera reported to his parole agent on Monday at 13th Street and Clearfield Street, the agent said Rivera was acting suspiciously so she locked him in a holding cell and went to search his car. Inside, she found a civilian version of the AK-47 assault rifle.
He's got that kind of weapon in his vehicle. He's going to see a parole officer while he's got this kind of stuff in the car. I mean, you know, for what? asks Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey.
The semiautomatic assault rifle and the 100 round drum magazine were found in the trunk along with a hoodie, a black mask, work gloves and Internet material on how to purchase a bulletproof vest. Rivera was arrested on the spot.
While parole officers were searching Rivera's car, one of his friends arrived on the scene and asked to take possession of the car. When police checked his car, they found drugs and another weapon.

A Hispanic (who looks like a Moslem - notice the shape of the beard) on parole for robbery, with a Soviet SKS assault rifle, ammo, etc. in Philadelphia.
U.S. soldiers shot and killed/wounded by a black Muslim convert here in the U.S.
No stories here. Just another day in Obamaland.
Janet Napolitano: Phone call for you. CAIR calling to tell you that Moslems are peaceful folk. Wanted to make sure you got the message, or else.
Re AMish on parole.
That does it. No more Amish potato salad for me. That’ll show them foreigners.
Oh, he’s on parole. Until I saw that I was thinking, “What’s newsworthy about someone having an assault rifle and a 100-round drum magazine in their trunk? Doesn’t everyone? I know I do.”
These dumbass libs and their inability to tell the truth about these perps
are going to get thousands of people killed.
And all they’re worried about is “offending a minority group”.
He’s a muslim prison convert.
And the press is using his birth name to cover for the fact that he’s a Muslim on a jihad and was going to use those weapons in a terrorist act.
A more proper name for the rifle would be a copy of the well known communist AK-47 rifle. I’d love it if reporters actually started calling them commie rifles...
The muzzies can’t even make rifles. Does anyone know of any mass produced rifle from Saudi Arabia? Iran? Iraq? Yeah, didn’t think so...
Fortunately, everytime these whiny politicians from philly want to pass gun grabbing laws, they get shot down and die in committee. Why don’t we pass a Muslim confiscation law? All of these Muzzies running around trying to kill people, it seems we’d be far better off if we just confiscate the muzzies.
I know it's wrong, but I can't help it!
The news report just says 100 rounds of ammo, nothing about a drum. It could have been 3 or 4 regular magazines, or just a couple of boxes of ammo.
This does not look like a Hispanic guy. That is not a Latino nose, that is a Middle Eastern nose. And only Muslims seem to like that particular type of beard. You can see a better shot of him showing the full beard in the video.
I don’t think you’ll find anyone arguing that this guy is Amish, Dutch-Irish,
or anything but a middle eastern MUSLIM.
So this part was made up?
I have two for my AR-15 and one for my shotgun.
"From my cold, dead hands!"
Drums for an AR would be the utmost in coolness. I have a few ARs, but they seize up after about 80 rounds, so a 100-round drum would be a moot point.
