Dozens of weapons have been stolen from freight trains in Los Angeles, city police chief Michael Moore told the police commission earlier this week.
“The attackers broke into containers and stole firearms, dozens of firearms,” Michael Moore quoted the InsiderPaper portal as saying from the report.
AFP in mid-January showed thousands of gutted boxes on a stretch of track near the city center, many of which were addressed to major retailers and shipped by logistics giants like UPS and FedEx.
Workers at the Union Pacific, which owns the largest railroad network in the US, told Fox News that thieves wait for long freight trains to stop on the tracks and break locks with bolt cutters. Then they open the packages and take everything that can be easily sold. Now there are weapons in the mail-catchers’ net.
Firearms purchased online in the United States cannot by law be shipped directly to the buyer. It may be sent to a licensed dealer where the buyer can obtain it.
On January 19, KA Pen & Paper lawyer Alexandra Kharin warned about the dangers of online shopping with home delivery. According to her, due to the delivery of online purchases to the house, a lot of random people get access to the home, among which there may be thieves or gunners. She recalled that the home address refers to the personal data of a person, and it is necessary to minimize its transfer to third parties.
