오하이오 주 출신의 18 세 소년이 금요일 타임 스퀘어 지하철역을 순찰하던 경찰이 AK-47과 장전 된 잡지를 들고 자신을 발견 한 후 무기 혐의를 받고 있습니다., 경찰은 말했다.
Saadiq Teague was arrested Friday afternoon, 뉴욕 경찰서는 말했다.
Teague was sitting down while charging his phone at the subway station, and had the unloaded AK-47 in front of him, a law enforcement source with direct knowledge of the situation told CNN on condition of anonymity. The teen also had a gas mask with him, 소식통이 말했다.
Police have not said why the teen had the weapon and loaded magazine.
New York Police Commissioner Dermot Shea tweeted congratulations to the officers on routine patrol who confiscated the items.
“This story could’ve had a tragically different ending, but thanks to these diligent cops it ends with the suspect in handcuffs,” Shea 금요일 트윗.
Teague is charged with two counts of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree; criminal possession of a weapon in the third degree; and criminal possession in the third degree relating to an ammunition clip, 뉴욕 경찰서에 따르면.
Teague also was charged with criminal use of drug paraphernalia in the second degree, Detective Annette Shelton said.
CNN was unable to identify an attorney for Teague but reached out to the Legal Aid Society to see if it is representing him. Teague may not have been assigned an attorney yet because the arrest is so recent, Red Haskins of Legal Aid told CNN.
CNN has sought comment from Teague’s family in Ohio and the Manhattan district attorney’s office.
