WASHINGTON, Jan. 24 (UPI) -- The Washington Metropolitan Police Department wanted to arrest former Meet the Press host David Gregory for showing an illegal high-capacity ammunition magazine during a December 2012 segment about gun control.
The arrest affidavit, obtained by conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch, shows police found probable cause to arrest Gregory following an interview with the National Rifle Association's Wayne LaPierre about banning high-capacity magazines in the United States. Gregory was never arrested or charged with a crime.
