The man who sold ammunition to Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock was arrested on Friday on charges of manufacturing and selling armor-piercing bullets without having the proper licensing, in violation of federal law.
Federal agents searched Douglas Haig’s home in Arizona on October 19 after finding his fingerprints on unfired armor-piercing ammunition inside Paddock’s hotel room at Mandalay Bay. CNN reports:
A criminal complaint says two unfired .308-caliber rounds found in gunman Stephen Paddock’s room had Douglas Haig’s fingerprints on them and tool marks from Haig’s workshop. The bullets in the cartridges were classified as armor-piercing, the complaint says.
Haig did not have a license to manufacture armor-piercing ammunition, documents say.
