An intern in Sen. Ted Cruzs (R-Texas) Washington, D.C., office was reportedly arrested on Capitol Hill this week for possessing unregistered ammunition.
U.S. Capitol Police told CNN in a statement that officers responded to a dispute between the intern, Scott Frantz, and another individual in Franzs car near the Capitol.
Police found shotgun shells in the back of Frantzs vehicle and arrested him, according to the report reviewed by CNN.
The 20-year-old was charged with possession of unregistered ammunition, a violation of D.C. firearm and ammunition possession restrictions.
An aide for Cruz told CNN that Frantz has been placed on leave. A spokeswoman for the senator said the office does not comment on pending law enforcement or personnel matters."
The Hill has reached out to Cruzs office for comment.
I call him “Beta O’Rourke”
“It is really disconcerting to go on a job on a military base, get the vehicle searched every day, and then once home after a week of going in and out the base, realize there was a loaded magazine underneath the back seat.”
My husband (USMC ret) says that the insanity of it all was to get shaken down to see if you had a gun and then he’d get on base and be in charge of an M249 with live ammunition.
DC’s gun laws are SOOO STUPID. We in the Free States can’t understand such idiocy, but you are not even allowed to possess even a single SPENT CASE of ammunition for a gun that isn’t registered in your name in DC. People have been arrested for a single spent 12-gauge hull.
But David Gregory was not areested and prosecuted after being filmed holding an illegal rifle magazine while in DC.
Unregistered bombshell? ;)
Those laws are for proles, not Party.
LOL!
Please let that communist cuckboy do that. Texans will laugh at him.
Take it to the Supreme Court after Trump’s nominee is confirmed.
What?! You are standing here robbing me in front of this ATM.
Well hold on a minute. I have this DR-15 Defense Rifle.
But my ammo is not registered. Wait a minute while I prepare some registration paperwork on the ammo and call some deep state bureaucrat to give him type & quantities of my ammo.
After I shoot at you, I must take inventory on how much ammo is left, and call that back in to the deep state.
I wasn’t aware that the Capitol Police enforce DC laws.
What in the hell is unregistered ammunition?
Hell, how do you even register something with no serial number?
Oh, oh. I guess I need to hide my display of minie balls. But what will I use to fill that place of honor on my wall?
When I was a kid, we lived in a VERY tough neighborhood. How tough, you ask?
We inserted the bullets...manually!
Ba-Dump-Dump-TISH!
Thanks! I’ll be here all week. Try the veal and don’t forget to tip your Waitress!
I dislike Cruz, but this is bogus.
So all a cop has to do is carry a couple of 12 gauge shells in his pocket, toss them in the crime scene and poof, instant chargeable offense.
How in the hell do you register ammunition! What a load of crap!
“Watch Beto ORourke try and make hay out of this and shoot himself in the foot.”
What pisses me off is Willie is giving a free concert to raise funds for this phony hispanic!
unregistered ammo?
ridiculous!!!!!!!!
what kind of insane, antiAmerican legislators do we have, anyway?
time to Drain the Swamp!!!!!!! FLUSH the Sheit down the Pontomac!
Unregistered ammo?? Oh, yeah, also lost in a tragic boating accident.
In Californica, ammunition will soon be required to have serial #s. Not kidding.
Coming next, Californica is going to make thinking about guns a criminal act. Not sure if I’m kidding.
