The part about the windshield being cracked as the basis for the stop is BS. NJ is notorious for using automatic license plate readers to ID CCW holders then stop them and harass the hell out of them. Most likely the cars plate showed the owner of record had a CCW. Insomuch as they were from Pennsylvania that would be a possibility

Alternatively the approaches of the tunnel are supposed to be monitored by side scan X-ray that allows a quick peek inside the car. Coming through NJ into NYC with that weaponry in your car these days is almost Darwin level stupidity.

I live in NY. I drive through NYC to get from my home on LI to my hunting camp in western NY. I don’t advertise. No orange vests hung In the window. Before driving through NYC I must legally Unload and lock up my carry weapon...I may re-arm once in Westchester county . Don’t want Wilhelm Doooshbag DiBlasio popping me for something so reduculous.
