Fri, September 12, 2014
Security Guards carry guns all the time, but tonight, the news is about one who is in jail tonight because police say the gun he carried didn't have a license. Forty year old Leroy Salgado, a security guard employed by Anchor Security was charged with kept firearm and ammunition without a gun license when he appeared today before Magistrate Dale Cayetano. Salgado pled not guilty to the charges but because it is a firearm offence, no bail is offered, so he was remanded into custody until September 30th.

The incident occurred on September 9. The police reported that they went to Garden Building on Coney Drive where they saw Salgado with a 9 millimeter pistol. The police say that when they asked Salgado to produce a license for the firearm, he couldn't. As a result, Salgado was charged with the offences. The firearm has a magazine that contained 8 rounds of ammunition. Salgado said that he was on duty at the time and the firearm he was issued with has a company license.
