"Santa Rosa police say they seized 167 firearms and three 3D printers in an ongoing investigation Tuesday, Feb. 10, that led to the arrest of a Cloverdale man accused of illegally manufacturing and selling guns. As detectives were preparing to search a residence early Tuesday, they observed Joshua Penuelas, 22, leaving the residence as a passenger in a vehicle, according to the Santa Rosa Police Department. Authorities said Penuelas was carrying a loaded handgun concealed in his waistband at the time of the stop,"
"Following the arrest, detectives searched two Cloverdale residences where police said Penuelas lived part-time. About 5:20 a.m. Tuesday, investigators found 36 firearms, many of them loaded and unsecured, at a home in the 100 block of Garden Circle, police said. An adult woman and young child live at the residence, police said. Though the firearms were allegedly accessible to the child, police said, the child was allowed to remain in the woman's care after the weapons were removed."
