NY: Former Marine arrested for having a handgun in NYC

This guy goes to NYC carrying $15,000 worth of gold and takes his handgun with him. He has a valid carry permit in his home state of IN.

He went on a website and checked for reciprocation and the article shows the site. The site showed very clearly that reciprocation between IN and NY exists.

Unfortunately, that reciprocation was wrongly listed on the website or the reciprocation does not extend to NYC.

He went to the Empire State Building and asked the sales person where he could secure his firearm. The person directed him to security where he repeated the query. Bada bing, bada boom, he finds himself under arrest.

He appeared on a Fox show with his lawyer end everyone there seemed reasonable with the exception of the young lady former prosecutor who doesn't seem to realize that the laws are not written for this type of person nor this type of prosecution.

He faces a maximum of fifteen years in jail with a mandatory two and one-half year minimum.

Don't believe what you read on a website. Confirm the info through face-to-face channels or at least get more than one opinion from several websites.

Let this be a lesson to everyone who might be considering a trip to Michael Bloomberg's NYC. DON'T!
