Ray Ray 3,566 Posted March 25, 2010 I was walking with my daughter in the park across the stree from my house and saw something shiny and made of brass, so I picked it up. So I looked around and found these: I called the police. They came, took my statement (and the 7 9mm rounds I found) and left! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GoNRA 12 Posted March 25, 2010 I see a lake nearby maybe the gun is in there, but why would someone empty there clip out before throwing there gun in the lake? why would someone empty there clip out at all? Screw thinking police have a hard job.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted March 25, 2010 The cop said it was problably from a fishermen's tackle box. btw, it's not a lake, it's the Kill Van Kull Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GRIZ 3,365 Posted March 25, 2010 The cop said it was problably from a fishermen's tackle box. btw, it's not a lake, it's the Kill Van Kull That's a brave fisherman who'll eat anything caught in the Arthur Kill. The gun has probably dissolved if it was thrown in yesterday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted March 25, 2010 You gotta see the guys out there when the tide is really low. Clams galour! And yeah, I would never eat anything out of that water, especially things that stay on the bottem like crabs or fish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Malsua 1,422 Posted March 25, 2010 Surprised the cops didn't tell you they were probably used in a drive-by. Sorta like that Iraqi woman holding up the cartridges she said were used to shoot her home. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LibertyOrDeath 3 Posted March 25, 2010 I think I would've wiped my prints off before I called the police! A month from now you could be tied up in a homicide investigation? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GRIZ 3,365 Posted March 25, 2010 I would never eat anything out of that water, especially things that stay on the bottem like crabs or fish. I grew up in Elizabeth and used to see guys swimming in the Arthur Kill. Never really cared to go swimming in water that smelled bad. One of the ways they determine how polluted water is is by the free oxygen level. 30 years ago the free oxygen level in the Arthur Kill was ZERO. Nothing could live there. I ran into someone from NOAA at work about 15 years ago. They were colleting water samples and catching fish. They told me the water there was getting better and evidence was there was fish living there. She didn't say she would eat the fish. Maybe in 50 years the Kill might clean itself up but not in my lifetime. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray Ray 3,566 Posted March 25, 2010 I remember my friends would go down to the "bay" and go swimming. I hung out down there but jumping in the water with garbage floating by? No thanks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
