A man was arrested on suspicion of possessing, selling and manufacturing assault weapons, according to the LAPD.

The suspect was placed into a car and transported by authorities to an unidentified location.

A spokesperson for the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) in Los Angeles confirmed a “joint investigation with LAPD” was ongoing.

Police told CBSLA more than roughly 1,000 firearms were recovered at the scene.

Thousands of rounds of ammo were also found at the home, according to CBSLA’s Tom Wait.

“Thousands of rounds of ammo were also found at the home”

i.e., 4 Bricks of .22 Long Rifle.

Only 1000? Piker!

[Viking2002]

LOL! It’s SoCal. Probably four tubes of Crossman BB’s and a pair of CO2 cartridges.

[Axenolith]

Quite a few of them appear to be junk, kind of an arms Type collection. The Thompson appears to be demilled.

[DoughtyOne]

Exactly.

I see folks bragging about what they have, and it sets off all sorts of alarm bells to me.

Folks, just enjoy them yourself. If you want to keep them, keep it to yourself what you own.

Someone finked on the guy.

He’s probably had those guns, at least some of them for 30 or more years. He’s never caused any trouble, and yet now he’s being portrayed as a big time criminal.

Nonsense. “Shall NOT be infringed...”

Maybe English is the ATF’s fifth or sixth language.

[sauropod]

So he was a collector.

So what?

[BubbaJunebug]

One man was arrested and is expected to be booked on weapons charges. He was later identified as Girard Damien Saenz from Los Angeles. He shows up on property records alongside Cynthia Beck, a former mistress to Gordon Getty, one of the world’s richest men.

If you check on Cynthia Beck former mistress of Gordon Getty you will see that she is a big democrat donor...Pelosi, Newsom and assorted dem critters....

[Cementjungle]

He’s just a rich kid, associated with old Dem money. He dabbles in weapons... but he’s a liberal and his girl friend has connections. This will go away for him.

[wizwor]

Islamic terrorists?

Mexican gangs?

If they found a red hat on the premises, we would know it. If someone with the same name was a Trump supporter, we would know it. If he was a US citizen, we would know it. With #FAKENEWS, what is not reported is as important as what is. Safe to assume this Latino has ties to the Democrat party and their illegal voters.

I was going to say, “ANTIFA weapons cache?”

[Tallguy]

Yeah, but they all had gun locks, so it’s all good.

[eartick]

Thousands of rounds of ammo were also found at the home

Well of course there would be ammo involved. What is a 1k firearms without the ammo....bats

So far I've yet to hear of an actual crime he had committed.

[karnage]

I’m not ready to bet.

But I am always dubious of anything ATF does.

[karnage]

Haven’t looked closely.

Someone else opined online that the Thompson(s) is/are semi-auto.

[backwoods-engineer]

So, it’s illegal in California to own a militia rifle or ammo? What a stupid place. How does that even comport with the Constitution? I’m never going there again.

[CMSMC]

I stand corrected ;-)

Paging Eric Holder.

[cradle of freedom]

I think this is the dark side of our government running guns.

[cradle of freedom]

Bingo!
