GUNS SEIZED IN FLORIDA

Jul 31, 2018 | 5:11 AM

Hundreds of gun owners in Florida have been ordered to give up their guns under a new law that took effect after the deadly Parkland shooting in February. The Risk Protection Order aims to temporarily remove weapons from gun owners who have been ruled by a judge to be a threat to themselves or others. About 30,000 rounds of ammunition were also taken. In addition to confiscating guns, the law also raised the age to buy a rifle to 21 and established a three-day waiting period on gun purchases.
