4 Ohioans arrested in gun-smuggling

NEW YORK (AP) -- Police arrested six people, including four from Ohio, and seized more than 100 weapons in what authorities said was the largest gun-smuggling bust in recent memory.
The six "were the source of scores of guns sold illegally on the streets of New York in the last year," Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said at a news conference Sunday.
Undercover detectives posed as gun buyers to snare the 116 guns over the course of a year, Kelly said. Police estimated the street value of the weapons at $118,000.
Though some 72 percent of guns used in New York City crimes come from out of state, where the weapons often can legally be bought more easily, the arrest of four Ohio residents as part of the bust was unusual, Kelly said.
