Ghost guns seized in Fallbrook domestic violence investigation – NBC 7 San Diego

A 45-year-old convicted felon, initially suspected of domestic violence, was taken into custody Thursday in connection with several weapons violations involving firearms and ammunition in Fallbrook.

According to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, William James Wallace of North County was arrested around 8 a.m. in the 700 block of Steward Canyon Road as officers conducted a further domestic violence investigation at his residence.

During further investigation, officers seized two handguns, an assault rifle and two ghost guns. These are privately manufactured firearms that are harder for law enforcement to track down because they lack serial numbers.

Wallace was booked into the Vista Detention Facility on suspicion of criminal possession of a firearm and ammunition and possession of an unidentified firearm.

Anyone with information about the gun raid or domestic violence is asked to call 760-451-3100.
