Officials are accusing the suspect of making massive gun sales in broad daylight near Polo Grounds Towers in Upper Manhattan.Officials are accusing the suspect of making massive gun sales in broad daylight near Polo Grounds Towers in Upper Manhattan.A 24-year-old North Carolina man was indicted for trafficking guns from North Carolina to New York City, prosecutors said Tuesday.
According to investigators, Colon allegedly recruited individuals in Rocky Mount, N.C. to obtain permits and purchase firearms for him along the “iron pipeline,” the route along the I-95 corridor, where gun traffickers are known to smuggle weapons. After paying them back using CashApp, he traveled to Manhattan, where he sold the weapons to an undercover officer, authorities alleged Tuesday.
The district attorney said officials were able to map out Colon’s trafficking plan through an eavesdropping warrant, where in one call, he allegedly asked a friend for instructions on how a straw purchaser could get their hands on the necessary permits for the guns.
