Guns from 3D printer
A Japanese man suspected of possessing guns made with a 3D printer has been arrested, reports said Thursday, in what was said to be the country’s first such detention.
Officers who raided the home of Yoshitomo Imura, a 27-year-old college employee, confiscated five weapons, two of which had the ability to fire lethal bullets, broadcaster NHK said. They also recovered a 3D printer from the home in Kawasaki, near Tokyo, but did not find any ammunition for the guns, Jiji Press reported.
It marked the first time Japan’s firearm control law has been applied to the possession of guns produced by 3D printers, Jiji reported.
The police investigation began after the suspect allegedly posted video footage on the Internet showing him shooting the guns, the Mainichi Shimbun said on its website.
