Ambushers Arrested
The criminals who stole rifles from a ROK Army patrol last month, have now been arrested:
Police and military authorities apprehended three men suspected of attacking two soldiers on patrol along the east coast and running off with their rifles and ammunition last month.
The suspects were arrested in Hanam, Kyonggi Province, and Songpa-gu, Seoul, and transported to a joint investigation headquarters in Tonghae, Kangwon Province, for questioning, according to investigators.
Police said they recovered two riles and two 15-cartridge magazines near a fishing place in Hanam, saying fingerprints on a ticket at a tollgate in the province helped them to identify the suspects.
I’m still curious what they had planned for those rifles?
Aren't firearms illegal for civilians to own? Those would go for a lot of money on the black market or to organized crime groups…
