Loaded rifle found in Jersey City backyard, police say
Updated on August 28, 2017 at 4:11 PM Posted on August 28, 2017 at 3:13 PM 52 shares By Caitlin Mota The Jersey Journal JERSEY CITY -- A rifle loaded with more than two dozen rounds of ammunition was found in the backyard in the Greenville neighborhood, officials said. The LRB M-15 gun -- a semi-automatic rifle -- was found at about 3 p.m. on Aug. 22 on Ocean Avenue near the Neptune Avenue intersection, city spokeswoman Jennifer Morrill said. A Jersey City firefighter has been suspended without pay following his arrest for sharing explicit photos of children. Police said the weapon had a high-capacity magazine and was loaded with 29 rounds. The gun is not compliant with New Jersey laws, which limit the size of the magazine to 15 rounds. No one has been arrested in the discovery and an investigation is ongoing, Morrill said. Caitlin Mota may be reached at cmota@jjournal.com. Follow her on Twitter @caitlin_mota.
