Shenzhen Custom Officials Detain Man Carrying 3,800 Bullets in Sneakers
Mar 14, 2014 By eChinacities.com


On March 10, Shenzhen customs stopped a man trying to enter China through the port. In the man’s car were four big suitcases, all containing very ordinary items: socks, shirts, toothbrush etc. Nothing appeared wrong, until they picked up a pair of sneakers that were way heavier than a normal pair should be. Turns out these runners were stuffed with various different kinds of ammunition. When they opened up the other suitcases they found all sort of gun paraphernalia, including lasers sights for guns, light devices and 3,855 bullet cartridges.

The man has been detained.

Not bullets. Pellets for airguns. Morons.

Preparing for war or supplying both sides? Didn't know gun running is so rampant here.

You notice they do not specify whether his nationality, that means he is Chinese.
