A 57-year-old man identified in court records as the longtime companion of Los Angeles real estate mogul Cynthia Beck was arrested Wednesday after authorities seized more than 1,000 guns from a home in Holmby Hills.
More than a thousand guns were seized after federal agents searched a home in Holmby Hills, authorities said.
The Bel-Air mansion was described by authorities as a hoarder’s paradise with guns strewn throughout the house. Court records show the property is owned by Cynthia Beck, who has three. Beck bought the property in January 2001, but it remains unclear what, if any, connection she has to Wednesday’s events. Beck could not be reached for comment.
Saenz has been a licensed general building contractor since 1994 and operates a business called Gerry Saenz and Associates, according to public records. The business address is a home on North Bunker Hill Avenue in Los Angeles that he owns with Beck. That property was one of several locations that were searched by authorities Wednesday, law enforcement sources not authorized to speak publicly told The Times.
Video of the raid shows what appear to be ATF officials reviewing the trove of guns stacked on the ground, examining boxes and taking photographs of evidence. Authorities said they also found a large amount of firearm-manufacturing equipment and tools.
