NEW YORK — Thousands of guns -- including numerous assault-style rifles and"ghost guns" -- were surrendered in a single day over the weekend across the state of New York in exchange for gift cards, according to the state attorney general.
"Gun violence has caused so many avoidable tragedies and robbed us of so many innocent New Yorkers," James said in a statement."Every gun that we removed out of Syracuse homes and off the streets is a potential tragedy averted and another step in protecting communities throughout New York state." In comparison to the weekend's gun buyback program, Syracuse police officers have seized and removed 76 guns from the community this year compared to 55 at the same point last year, Walsh said. He said 90% of the guns seized by police are from out of state.
