A 34-year-old man from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is charged with multiple offenses after carrying a suitcase filled with firearms, including a booby-trapped rifle, through New Jersey transit stations. This alarming incident culminated in his arrest at the Trenton Transit Center on January 3, 2025, following an investigation initiated when a transit officer discovered an unattended suitcase at Newark-Penn Station containing weapons and ammunition.
