“This afternoon (1/2/24) at about 2:30PM, an officer on patrol In Folsom stopped a car for a vehicle code violation in the area of Wales Drive and E. Bidwell Street. The officer found the driver had an outstanding felony arrest warrant, for being a felon in possession of a firearm on an earlier occasion. Officers discovered the man was on both probation and parole for varying convictions. After arresting the man, officers located an apparent homemade gun in the vehicle. These guns are often called “ghost guns” because they don’t have serial numbers and are difficult to trace.
The driver, Joseph Sixtoe, a 41 year old transient from Sacramento, was booked into the Sacramento County jail for the existing arrest warrant and a new charge of Possession of a Firearm by a Felon.”
