There was a major illegal gun bust at an Upper East Side apartment building Wednesday. AliBaumanTV reports.
We know police took two people into custody after they found untraceable guns, along with materials to make explosives and drugs.
We're told the NYPD's Major Case Field Intelligence Team executed a search warrant Wednesday morning inside an apartment on East 84th Street and Third Avenue. Investigators seized several ghost guns, as well as equipment for making narcotics pills. Ghost guns are illegal and untraceable firearms. Police say in the apartment, officers also found materials that are typically used in explosives, including pressure cookers and chemicals, which authorities tell us can also be used in manufacturing narcotics. The NYPD has deemed the chemicals here to be non-hazardous.
Police say right now, this is believed to be a contained situation with no apparent nexus to terrorism.
