Man arrested after 7-year-old finds loaded gun at playground
A Lancaster man was arrested over the weekend after a loaded pistol was left at a Fort Mill playground and a 7-year-old girl found it, according to a York County Sheriff’s Office report.
A deputy was called to Plaza Fiesta just after 1:45 p.m. Saturday by a man who said a 7-year-old girl had given him a gun that she found on the playground.
The weapon was fully loaded when the girl discovered it, the report stated.
Later, another man asked a security guard if he could have his gun back, the report stated. Roberts told the sheriff’s deputy that he had his gun on the playground and must have dropped it when he went to get his son.
The suspect, 31-year-old Anthony Roberts, has a concealed weapons permit, but signs at the entrances to Plaza Fiesta said no weapons were allowed, the report stated.
Roberts was charged with trespassing after notice.
