Ypsilanti police arrest man with loaded gun
Ypsilanti police say they arrested a 19-year-old man with a loaded handgun this afternoon after a citizen called to report a man on the street with a gun in his hand.
Another person with that man was arrested on a warrant.
Police say they received a call at about 2:30 p.m. reporting a man walking in the area of Ballard and Congress with two other men and a gun in his hand.
Officers found the three men about two blocks away in the 300 block of Hawkins Street. They discovered the 19-year-old Ypsilanti man had a fully loaded Beretta .25-caliber handgun in his pants pocket, a police press release said.
The man was arrested for carrying a concealed weapon and was lodged at the Washtenaw County Jail.
A second man was arrested on an unspecified warrant, and the third man was released at the scene, police said.

Very good job, I recieved calls that police was grabing youths left and right.(including my son) until they found this kid with a gun. I tried explaining to my son that if you hang with that type of crowd there is a price to pay and police have a job to do even if it has to effect innocent people without violating any rights. Very good job Ypsi police... Keep doing what you do...
