SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A Republican legislator who is an outspoken advocate for gun rights was cited Wednesday for trying to bring a loaded handgun onto a flight.
California Assemblyman Tim Donnelly was detained after a Colt .45 with four rounds was discovered inside his carry-on bag at Ontario International Airport, said Transportation Security Administration spokesman Nico Melendez.
Donnelly, a self-proclaimed Tea Party Republican, said he inadvertently left the gun in his briefcase. He was cited and released from custody.
