Oxnard, California - U.S. Border Patrol agents arrested three men and one woman at an Oxnard residence on Wednesday for their connection in the seizure of 13 high-powered firearms.
This seizure was the culmination of a Border Patrol investigation linked to a Ford F-150 pickup truck that agents suspected was involved in cross-border smuggling activity.
The agents were able to obtain a state search warrant for the residence in Oxnard, where the pickup truck was parked. The agents, along with law enforcement personnel from the Los Angeles, California Multi-Jurisdictional Methamphetamine Enforcement Team (LA CalMMET), served the warrant and seized 10 AR-15 assault rifles, one semiautomatic centerfire rifle, one shotgun, one .50 caliber rifle, numerous rounds of ammunition and $10,000 in illicit currency.

Interesting, but not surprising how they push their propaganda in the story as far as the weapons, it should have read that they seized eleven centerfire semi automatic rifles, one .50 caliber rifle and a shotgun. But calling 10 of the rifles "Assault" rifles is sooo much scarier.

My gosh, do these people have to take stupid pills before they get jobs as reporters?
