Ghost Guns and Drugs Seized Following Armed Threat

Scranton police have confiscated over 200 grams of marijuana and parts for “ghost guns” after a man allegedly threatened two people with a firearm during a dispute outside a home. The incident, which occurred on February 9, involved 27-year-old Austin Vanwert, who reportedly brandished a gun with a visible red laser and challenged the victims following an argument about drug use in a parked car.

Investigators discovered a range of illegal items in Vanwert’s residence, including ammunition, drug paraphernalia, and components for multiple 3D-printed firearms. Vanwert claimed the firearm he displayed was a “prop” created for his child, yet authorities have charged him with various gun and drug-related offenses. The troubling escalation highlights ongoing concerns regarding gun violence and illegal drugs in the area.
