Teenager pleads guilty after investigators uncover cache of illegally possessed weapons
Here's a look at the deadly arsenal St. Paul police confiscated from a 17-year-old Here's a look at the deadly arsenal St. Paul police confiscated from a 17-year-old Here's a look at the deadly arsenal St. Paul police confiscated from a 17-year-old An 18-year-old man has pleaded guilty to owning a machine gun after an investigation at a St. Paul home in March recovered a cache of illegally possessed weapons, including a ghost gun. The teenager was 17 years old when Ramsey County authorities found the "ghost guns, automatic machine guns, multiple extended magazines and enough ammunitions for multiple drive-by shootings." According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, a "ghost gun" refers to a firearm that has been assembled or completed by someone other than a licensed manufacturer. They do not have a serial number, which often makes them difficult to track. The teenager was charged with 12 felony counts all relating to the cache of weapons investigators found during their search. He pleaded guilty Friday in juvenile court to one count of owning a machine gun. He was placed on electronic home monitoring and house arrest. His sentencing is scheduled for Wednesday. Ramsey County Sheriff's Office Court records show that he was previously charged in a 2024 incident where he was alleged to have pulled a gun on someone at a rec center in St. Paul, though the charge was dismissed from the record after he served 180 days probation and a term of community service. Note: The above video first aired on April 2, 2025.

Teens accused of involvement in machine gun robbery released over lack of space
Lack of space at the State's main youth detention centre resulted in two Dublin teenagers accused of being armed with a machine gun during a burglary being freed at the weekend, it has emerged. One of the boys – released on Saturday night – failed to attend his next court hearing on Monday, and a warrant has been issued for his arrest. Advertisement The 17-year-old boys and two men had been refused bail on Saturday after a judge heard a 60-year-old man was "savagely" beaten in front of his terrified family when machine gun-armed intruders forced entry into their home in Shankill, Co Dublin, on June 11th. All four were charged with aggravated burglary and unlawful possession of a Czechoslovakian-made 9mm Skorpian machine pistol. Following their District Court appearance on Saturday, it transpired that the Oberstown Detention Campus in Dublin had no room to take the two youths despite the judge's decision. Habeas corpus Gardaí held them until their lawyers launched habeas corpus, a legal mechanism to challenge unlawful detention, in the High Court on Saturday night. That led to a temporary "workaround" order releasing the pair on bail and subject to "house arrest" until their appearance on Monday at the Children's Court. Advertisement The boys, from north Dublin, cannot be named because they are minors. On Monday, Judge Brendan Toale ordered gardaí to arrest the one who did not turn up. Noting there were still no remand beds available in the detention centre, he had to grant the co-accused teenager bail pending directions from the Director of Public Prosecutions· Judge Brendan Toale highlighted how the lack of room in the detention facility had become a constant problem for the courts. Advertisement "This whole situation arises where the lack of place in Oberstown is an ongoing difficulty; it has been going on certainly for the last six months at a high level when, more often than not, there are no beds available, and where there was a refusal of bail," he stated before he was forced to send the boy home. The teenager, who has yet to enter a plea, was accompanied to court by relatives and ordered to obey a 10pm – 6am curfew at his home, stay contactable by phone, remain out of the Shankill area, not contact witnesses, surrender his passport within 48 hours and not apply for alternative travel documents. He will appear again in four weeks. Adult co-defendants Sean Doran, 26, of Earl Street South and widower Gregory Dunne, 60, from Oliver Bond Flats, both in Dublin 8, were remanded in prison custody on Saturday and are back in court later this week. Advertisement Dublin District Court heard on Saturday that the Garda ballistics section stated the gun was "capable of full automatic firing", and the burglary and gun charges can carry possible life sentences. Mr Doran has an additional charge of assault causing harm to the 60-year-old homeowner, who suffered lacerations from blows to his face and head. Bail objections In bail objections, evidence stated that he, his wife, aged 63, and their 35-year-old son were in "grave fear" they would not remain in the house and had since moved to a hotel. At the bail hearings, Garda witnesses stated the four acted in joint enterprise. It was alleged that the two masked teens in puffer jackets travelled to the house on an e-bike while Mr Doran came in a 2007-reg Honda Accord car driven by Mr Dunne. Advertisement The teenager who showed up to court on Monday was said to have had a black face cover and approached the house. It was claimed that he removed the gun from the front of his trousers and "pointed" it at the family through the window. The proceedings were informed that the boys allegedly "forced" their way in the front door while Mr Doran came through a rear entrance before the homeowner was "savagely" beaten. Detective Garda Michael Murphy claimed Mr Doran delivered punches and kicks to the man's head and face, and there were bloodstains on the accused's footwear. Detective Garda Darragh Phelan said the second teenager used boxer shorts as a balaclava and left with the gun on an e-bike. A civilian witness was said to have observed him discarding it before he allegedly drove onto the M50, where he crashed between Junction 12 and 13 and was arrested. Ireland Anthony Nash asked Garda if she knows who he is wh... Read More That teenager failed to turn up for his hearing on Monday. The bail hearings were also informed that gardaí responded to a call from the couple's son, who was in a state of distress, saying, "A number of males were attacking his parents' home, and one had a gun; the male pointed the gun and directed it them". Gardaí testified that a commotion could be heard over the phone line. The car was stopped close nearby and armed support officers arrived and arrested three of the defendants.

Morphy's Unleashed Major Firepower May 13-15 with $6.74M Auction of Prized Military, Civilian & Sporting Firearms
Sensational Fabrique Nationale (Herstal) US M240B machine gun, .308, one of very few specimens of its type fully transferable to individuals, led the sale at $467,400 DENVER, Pa., June 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Premier examples of military, civilian and sporting firearms crossed the auction block on May 13-15 at Morphy's flagship gallery in Denver, Pennsylvania, with aggressive bidding – especially on NFA weapons – pushing the grand total to a heady $6,740,000. The top-selling lot was a spectacular factory-original Fabrique Nationale (Herstal) U.S. M240B machine gun, one of very few specimens of its type confirmed to be fully transferable to an individual owner. In near-mint condition, it retained its original tripod and even its original shipping box. Per its consignor, the gun had never been fired since leaving the factory. Its markings included U.S. M240 / 11825980 / MACHINE GUN 7.62MM on the left side of the receiver, followed by its serial number, contract number and National Stock Number. Prior to the auction, Morphy Auctions' founder and president, Dan Morphy, pegged it as a superstar lot, calling it "a tremendous example that would be all but impossible to upgrade." Morphy's observation proved correct. In "exceptionally high condition," the gun sold for a solid $467,400, near the midpoint of its estimate range. Another big winner in the NFA category was a factory-original Heckler & Koch four-position-selector MP5SD3 machine gun, 9mm Luger caliber, with an HK MP5SD silencer. An IE proof code on top of the receiver indicated its year of manufacture to be 1984. It was further marked Made in W. Germany / HK Chantilly, Va on the right side of the magazine well, and HK MP5 SD on top of the receiver. Importantly, it conveyed to its new owner with an official BATF letter identifying the gun and silencer as being unrestricted and fully transferable to individuals. Extremely attractive with crisp mechanics, this sought-after gun rocketed to $96,000 against an estimate of $40,000-$60,000. There was also great interest in a circa-2009 Westley Richards Droplock .470 Double Rifle with chopper lump barrels with the manufacturer's patented flip-over front sight, and scenes of big game (cape buffalo, rhinos, elephant) engraved and signed by Peter Spode and dated '09. The gun was further engraved over its chambers with CAL. .470 NITRO-EXPRESS and REG. FOR 500 GRN. BULLET. Its wide concave rib was gold-inlaid with the name WESTLEY RICHARDS & Co ENGLAND. Accompanied by a handsome Westley Richards case and accessories, it sold for $96,000 against an estimate of $45,000-$65,000. A treasure of the Civil War era, an outstanding cased set of Colts consisted of an 1860 fluted Army Revolver and an 1862 Police Revolver. The set was originally a factory presentation to Colonel Henry Craig, US Army Chief of Ordnance. It conveyed to its new owner with a copy of a 2019 factory letter confirming its 1861 shipment to Major W.M.B. Hartley with the notations: "To Col. Craig, U.S.A. Commanding Ordnance Corps From Colt's P.F.A. Mfg. Co." and "Furnished with a shoulder stock, a powder flask, 60 cartridges, and 500 belt caps." According to firearms expert Greg Martin, this set was acquired directly from the Craig family. It sold at Morphy's for $116,850. Edged weapons continued their hot streak, with a signed World War II sword forged by Masataka (Japan) at the Minatogawa shrine rising to a final price of $49,200, well in excess of its $18,000-$25,000 pre-sale estimate.
