 A juvenile suspect was taken into custody Friday after deputies discovered an unregistered ”ghost gun” while conducting a traffic stop in San Marcos.

Deputies from the San Marcos gang Enforcement Team conducted the traffic stop at about 2 p.m. for a vehicle violation near Autumn Drive and Tiger Way, according to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Office.Four juvenile suspects were in the vehicle, and one had an unregistered loaded pistol in their waistband, sheriff’s officials said. The Sheriff’s Department described the weapon as a ”ghost gun,” which are assembled from kits and without serial numbers, making them practicallyuntraceable. 

    ”The lack of a serial number makes it extremely challenging for law enforcement agencies to track these firearms to their owner or maker, hindering or delaying investigations and crime-solving efforts,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

     During the investigation, deputies also found illegal substances and a large amount of cash.The juvenile suspect was arrested and booked on suspicion of carrying a loaded gun in a public place or public street and owning or possessing a gun without a serial number.
