Police Seize Loaded Ghost Gun from Rochester Teen
Rochester, MN (KROC-AM News)- The Rochester Police Department reported Monday morning that officers seized a loaded handgun from a Rochester teenager last week.

Police Captain Casey Moilanen said officers were dispatched to the Saigon Far East Oriental Market in the 3900 block of 18th Ave. Northwest on the report of a person in a vehicle in the parking lot flashing a handgun around 1:45 p.m. Thursday. Responding officers were able to approach the vehicle without being seen and seized the firearm without incident.
Moilanen said the gun was confiscated from a 16-year-old in the passenger seat of the vehicle. Police classified the weapon as a ghost gun after finding it did not have a serial number.
The teenager was then brought to the Olmsted County Adult Detention Center and could face charges for possessing a pistol without a permit and ineligible possession of a firearm. Moilanen said the teenager also had an active apprehension warrant.
Moilanen described the seized firearm as a 9mm.
