FBI and Homeland Security nabbed Jose Gerardo Ruiz Alonso in Omaha for gun trafficking and money laundering, seizing 71 firearms and tons of ammo linked to his business and home. The bust began after a bank flagged suspicious activity tied to his company, Manuelitools LLC, and an informant bought three handguns from him—later traced to interstate commerce. Alonso, here on an expired tourist visa since 2012, allegedly admitted to buying guns at gun shows without IDs and funneling them to a family member for legal purchase. He’s now in custody, facing a preliminary hearing July 31st.
