In a new attempt to reduce the amount of guns on the street, police in Buffalo, NY are going after deceased pistol permit holders.
Last week at a press conference, the BPD told reporters that a majority of guns used in crimes seem to come from guns stolen from homes. This led to the new program of confiscating guns of the recently-deceased in order to make sure the guns do not make their way to the streets.
“We recently started a program where we’re cross referencing all the pistol permit holders with the death records, and we’re sending people out to collect the guns whenever possible so that they don’t end up in the wrong hands,” said Police Commissioner Daniel Derrenda.
