The flood of ghost guns is slowing after regulation. It's also being challenged in the Supreme Court
The Supreme Court is hearing arguments in a case over a federal regulation aimed at reducing weapons often referred to as ghost guns
WASHINGTON (AP) — Guy Boyd was hanging out with friends he had known for years in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on the night an accidental gunshot tore into his head.
The high schoolers were too young to buy guns legally, but federal and state laws didn't apply to the gun parts kit his best friend bought online and assembled himself to fashion a so-called ghost gun.
Somehow, the gun went off and a shot struck Boyd in the eye. He felt a searing pain in his head and his vision went red. “I remember hearing, ‘I love you, bro.’ And I said it back, but I didn’t know who said it,” Boyd said.
He spent nearly a week in the hospital after that night in May 2021. Bullet and bone fragments remain embedded in his brain, causing seizures that make his dream of going to culinary school in New York seem hopelessly out of reach.
