Authorities recently raided the home of a convicted felon in Antelope Valley, California. Guess what they found?
Sixty-year-old Manuel Fernandez was arrested last week after Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies and state and federal investigators raided his Agua Dulce home.
Officials Monday say the searchers found 432 rifles and handguns – some decades old – at his home on the 34700 block of Caprock Road Thursday morning. When they returned the following day, they found another 91 hidden weapons.
Finally, 30 guns were seized at another home in Agua Dulce believed linked to a female associate of Fernandez, who hasn’t returned to the home.
Investigators also seized computers, cellphones and hard drives used to purchase the guns,
Holy crap.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m of the belief that you can own AS MANY GUNS AS YOU WANT, but this case is just interesting, because he’s a convicted felon. How did this happen? After all, gun laws!
By the way, a source “familiar with the investigation” said they didn’t believe Fernandez was planning an attack. They described him as more of a collector. Take that as you will.
Fernandez was booked on suspicion of being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition and illegally possessing an assault rifle and large-capacity magazines.
He was ordered held on $35,000 bail. He posted that amount on Friday and was released from the Los Angeles County Medical Center’s jail ward, where he was being held.
In addition:
It’s unclear what felony he was previously convicted of. He was sentenced to 486 days in jail in February 2017, and was released in August 2017, according to jail records.
Fernandez is due back in Antelope Valley Superior Court on July 9.
“This case is a testament to the community’s involvement in reducing crime and taking guns out of the hands of criminals,” Sheriff Jim McDonnell said. “We are proud of the relationship we have built in the Antelope Valley area as we continue to build trust with the communities we serve.”
