The majority of illegal guns recovered in Camden, New Jersey, are from out of state, according to a recent report from Camden County Police. CydneyLongNBC10 discusses the report with the Camden County Police chief:
Chief Rodriguez told NBC10 his department noticed an increase in gun recoveries in the spring of last year.
The Camden County Police Department Intelligence Team determined 93 percent of the guns they recovered in the city in 2022 and 2023 were from out of state, with 20.6 percent from Pennsylvania, 15.9 percent from Georgia and 8.7 percent from Virginia, according to the data they compiled. “That’s also something that was quite alarming because we’re finding 13, 14 year olds are the ones being armed, a majority of them being armed with the weapons, committing various crimes,” Chief Rodriguez said.
“We learned that there were several hundred kids not attending school during the same period of time. Close to 700 kids just stopped going to school,” Chief Rodriguez said. “So we’re knocking on their doors. We’re trying to do some outreach. We’re letting them know, ‘Listen, look at our partners that are with us.’ Because we have the FBI, DEA, U.S. Marshals, everyone standing beside us to show them, ‘We know what you’re up to. We want to keep you on the right track.
