The semi-automatic rifle used to kill five people and injure nine at the Louisville bank shooting on Monday will likely be auctioned off and be “back on the streets,” Mayor Craig Greenberg said.
Greenberg — who has called for an end to the gun violence plaguing his city — said current Kentucky law allows guns seized by the police to go to auction, including those used in violent crimes.
“The assault rifle that killed five of our neighbors will one day be auctioned off,” the mayor said Tuesday. “That murder weapon will be back on the streets.”
The Louisville Metro Police Department has revealed shooter Connor Sturgeon, 25, who was shot dead by responding officers, purchased the AR-15 rifle legally from a local gun dealership on April 4.
LMPD Interim Chief Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel added that police have executed a search warrant at Sturgeon’s residence and recovered several items linked to the investigation.

Outlawing guns will get rid of guns the same way outlawing drugs got rid of drugs.

Our real problem is that the left is “on the streets”.

What was the motivation of the shooter?
The only motivation I can think of is crazy.

Hopefully it will go to a good home. They should look at this more like running a shelter for stray weapons, without any neutering requirement.

Yeah, idiotic statements from mayors make me a little twisted.

Yeah., but as I suspected, he bought an AR to make a statement about gun control. Crazy, and an a-hole.

Maybe the Mayor is a gun broker on the side.

What a disgusting thing to say. He could call the DA’s office and the Chief of the PD and demand they destroy the weapon after the trial. It’s not that difficult

"The semi-automatic rifle used to kill five people and injure nine at the Louisville bank shooting on Monday will likely be auctioned off and be “back on the streets,” Mayor Craig Greenberg said."
But Connor Sturgeon won't.
Is it already missing from the evidence locker?

Back on the streets, just like the violent criminals being allowed to walk away from their crimes by activist DAs nationwide, to commit more.... and on and on and on....
To: ChicagoConservative27
That one is a particularly evil AR and will surely roam the streets of Louisville looking for others to kill. It should have been sentenced to death by lethal injection.

(He) vowed his office will continue to alter seized weapons before they’re auctioned to keep them from being used in another homicide, including removing the firing pin.What a dope.
