Showing Original Post only (View all)Police investigating David Gregory for displaying illegal gun clip on-air [View all]
The Washington Metropolitan Police Department is investigating Meet the Press host David Gregory for a potential violation of the District of Columbias gun laws, a spokesman for the department confirmed to The Hill.
While interviewing National Rifle Association (NRA) CEO Wayne LaPierre on Sunday, Gregory held up what appeared to be a 30-round magazine to ask if it should be banned. The cartridge is illegal in Washington, D.C., where Meet the Press is filmed.
