Leaders for the City of San Diego, including Mayor Todd Gloria and Chief of Police Dave Nisleit, announced new gun enforcement action during a press conference Wednesday morning.
The action stemmed from a months-long, crime reduction project targeting privately made firearms.
Over a three-month period, several law enforcement agencies worked together, with the goal of working to lower the amount of violent crimes in San Diego County. During that timeframe, the agencies seized 165 firearms, 82 of which were ghost guns.The agencies used data and intelligence gathered from undercover operations to target known problem areas around the county. Law enforcement also used surveillance and social media to aid their investigations.
As part of this effort, agents also seized drugs. The San Diego County District Attorney's Office says it is currently working on more than 10 cases after 66 pounds of meth, 1.4 kilograms of fentanyl and 2 kilograms of cocaine were all seized during the operation. The San Diego Police Department's Ghost Gun Apprehension Team, which was started in 2021, played a large role in the crime reduction project.
