Bay Area law enforcement agencies held anonymous gun buyback events on Saturday.
In South San Francisco, the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office along with a handful of other local agencies took in 392 firearms, including seven assault style weapons and 12 ghost guns.
"Get them off the streets, enhance public safety and ensure they don't fall into the wrong hands," he said. "We had it scheduled already but it certainly is timely with all of the tragic gun events occurring. I'm very pleased to see our residents recognizing the important of getting guns they don't need or want off their hands," Bolanos said.
"It's been very clear that the citizens and residents here in San Mateo County are quite concerned about gun violence," she said."It certainly isn't going to address the issue of gun violence and gun safety in total but it gives residents an option that's safe for them to turn in their unwanted firearms.""In the last four gun buybacks, there's been 1,679 firearms turned in," Lacampagne said.
