Syracuse Police tied four shootings this week to illegal gun trafficking after arresting three people in a case that moved 52 handguns from Georgia—16 were found locally and one was used in a murder-suicide.

ATF data show that guns in the state are typically recovered 11 years after purchase, and in 2023 Syracuse recovered 352 firearms used in crimes.
