Federal agents in Omaha shut down a major gun trafficking ring, seizing 70+ firearms, ammo, and $40K in cash linked to Jose Gerardo Ruiz Alonso—a prohibited gun owner who allegedly bought weapons at gun shows to avoid ID checks. The bust began when a bank flagged suspicious activity tied to his business, Manuelitools LLC, prompting an FBI probe. A confidential informant confirmed Ruiz Alonso’s illegal status and set up a $1,500 gun purchase, revealing hidden weapons at his shop. Warrants at his home and warehouse uncovered the haul; Ruiz Alonso admitted he was in the U.S. illegally and confirmed his trafficking methods, including using a cousin to legally acquire guns. The case underscores growing concerns over illegal gun flows and money laundering in America.
