The firearms charges against Patriots cornerback Jack Jones were dropped Tuesday.
“He’s grateful that the case is resolved and he’s looking forward to playing football full time,” his defense attorney Rosemary Scapicchio told the Herald. “That’s what he wants to do.”
Massachusetts State Police troopers stationed at Boston Logan International Airport arrested Jones, 25, the afternoon of June 16 after they say two pistols were found on his carry-on bag as he was going through a TSA security checkpoint.
He was charged with two counts each of possession of a concealed weapon in a secure area of an airport, possession of ammunition without a firearm identification card, unlawful possession of a firearm, carrying a loaded firearm and possession of a large-capacity feeding device.
He pleaded not guilty at his arraignment in municipal court in East Boston on June 20, posted $30,000 cash bail and has been out since. A hearing scheduled for last month was rescheduled.
The alleged guns were both loaded Glock 9mm pistols, a Glock 43X and Glock 19, according to prosecutors.
Seized alongside them were three loaded magazines: a 30-round, a 15-round and 10-round, as well as a total of 54 rounds of 9mm ammunition. The guns were allegedly inside an unlocked black Glock handgun box that was itself inside a black duffel bag labeled with the words “UFC” and “Jones, Jack.”
This is a developing story.
