LOS ANGELES – Authorities seized more than a thousand guns from a large Los Angeles home after getting an anonymous tip regarding illegal firearms sales in a posh area near the Playboy Mansion.
Officials said Los Angeles police and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives served a search warrant around 4 a.m. Wednesday at the property on the border of the Bel Air and Holmby Hills neighborhoods.
The ATF said guns were recovered along with weapons manufacturing equipment and tools. Authorities say there is no danger to the public.
Photos from the scene showed stacks of hundreds of rifles and handguns and thousands of rounds of ammunition.
Police officials said the investigation is ongoing in the hillside area where homes typically sell for millions of dollars.
