A new Baltimore law requires gun owners to report lost or stolen weapons. The law, which takes effect Nov. 11, requires gun owners to alert police within two days of noticing their weapon is missing.
Failure to do so will be a misdemeanor carrying a $500 fine for a first offense. For subsequent violations, the law calls for $750 fines and up to 90 days imprisonment.
The National Rifle Association says the new law is “frivolous” and Baltimore leaders should concentrate more on enforcing current laws, not adding new ones.
