An intern in Sen. Ted Cruz’s (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 Franz’s car near the Capitol.
Police found shotgun shells in the back of Frantz’s 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 Cruz’s office for comment.
Ammunition?
Oh, nooooooo!
Really - do they require boxes be registered? How about identification numbers on the ammo itself to prove the ammo came from a “registered” batch? Can see them gong through a weapon and telling the owner that while most of the rounds are OK, there is one unregistered round in the weapon - so off to jail with you....
I remember that passage well...................
