Police found a “ghost gun” after a Gilroy home was searched in connection to a San Mateo County shooting Wednesday
After investigators, including the county’s Gang Intelligence Unit, began working the case, they identified a San Mateo County man as a suspect.
The 23-year old suspect was arrested Thursday in Gilroy. Detectives executed a search warrant at a nearby home — authorities did not say what led them to the home, or who lived there — and found a “ghost gun,” a personally manufactured weapon that did not bear a serial number. The suspect was arrested on suspicion of assault with a firearm, child endangerment, criminal threats and reckless discharge of a firearm.
The sheriff’s office said in the release that detectives believe the shooting was an isolated incident and there is no public safety concern. Authorities did not specify a reason for the child endangerment booking charge.
