Police arrested two men in the Chicago suburbs on June 1 after a traffic stop and subsequent vehicle search revealed a stolen gun from 1969 that was apparently in their possession.
When questioned about the firearm, the passenger, aged 18, allegedly told police he owned the gun, but he had no valid firearm owner’s identification card (FOID) or concealed carry license.
The passenger was arrested on one felony count of aggravated unlawful use of a weapon without a FOID or concealed carry license. The driver was charged with a traffic violation and two misdemeanor counts of driving under the influence.
