MCSO
SCOTTSDALE, AZ - A Scottsdale fraud investigation led police to the Chandler home of a convicted felon allegedly in possession of 11 guns, 10,000 rounds of ammunition and body armor.

Court records show that police raided a home in Chandler and found multiple weapons, thousands of rounds of ammunition, body armor and a sniper rifle in the home of a convicted felon from California.

Police report that in late November 2016 they became aware of 'suspicious fraudulent activity' at two high-end jewelry stores in Scottsdale.

They say a man, later identified as 33-year-old Isa Ali Imran, bought two Rolex watches worth over $17,000 with credit cards under the name of June Upton, a person police say does not exist.

Police say Imran and his girlfriend also attempted to buy other jewelry with other false identities. Police were able to track down the real identity of Upton as being Imran.

Imran is a convicted felon having spent two years in a California prison under the name Van Taylor. Police went to his home in Chandler, near Arizona Avenue and Hunt Highway, where they say they found an envelope with multiple fake identities out of Texas.

Police also allegedly found four handguns, seven rifles (including a 'high-end,' long-range sniper rifle, 2 AK-47's and 2 AR-15's), body armor and 10,000 rounds of ammunition, all of which Imran cannot possess due to his felony conviction.

11 Guns and 10,000 rounds is hardly an arsenal. Sniper rifle? (any bolt action with a scope)

If he was a regular Joe like us I wouldn't give this much thought but with his travels to where radical Jihadists are and the fact he had two AR's and two AK's does give me the idea he could have something else in mind even though the article doesn't say anything about him committing a violent crime. It sounds like he may have been looking for or already did have an accomplice for a future jihadi hit. He should never see the light of day again for this alone. Once they have gone muzzie like that it's over.

I suspect he was radicalized in prison like more and more are these days. Obama knew this when he set a record number free these past few months. Why Obuttbanger isn't in jail right now is a shame which I hope will soon be corrected by an honest AG's office.

Again it's no big deal for someone to be this well armed in AZ but with him being a felon, likely radicalized, and traveling where he would be further trained and radicalized tells me this guy was bad news.

BTW; are you still riding an FXRP? What year is/was yours? I switched to Victory 6 years ago and now they stopped making them dang it. The FXR's were the best HD's ever made IMHO. It's one of the few I would own these days after riding HD for 33 years while building and owning 9 of 'em.

Yeah, number 3 is what I lack too, but in reality it probably would be wasted on an oldish fart like me. That’s what berms and thick steel barriers are for. :D

Arizona? I bet not ONE of these was an “illegal weapon.” This might not have been a good guy, but I’m sick of fake news like “illegal weapons.”

92 fxrp. Upgraded to Electra Glide in 2000. I did an Iron Butt run from St Louis to NH one day and bought the Glide the following day. My shoulders thanked me.

Listen kid! I've been hearing that crap ever since I was at UCLA. I'm out there busting my buns every night! Tell your old man to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the court for 48 minutes!

They were all illegal for him to own/possess since he is a convicted criminal. Hence, "illegal weapons".
