The Alberta Law Enforcement Response Team has confiscated what it calls a “ghost gun.”
Officers say they arrested a man on Jan. 9 and that he allegedly had a “3D-printed Glock-style handgun” tucked into his waistband.
“Ghost guns are favoured by organized crime because of their ability to bypass lawful acquisition and can go undetected,” ALERT Lethbridge Staff Sgt. Trevor Sheppard said.
“These pose a serious risk to our communities, especially in the hands of a drug dealer.”
