Officials from states with strong gun restrictions have called for stricter firearm control in places with weaker laws to thwart traffickers, but the fatal attack on a Jewish market in New Jersey shows how fruitless those efforts can be.
The attackers carried five firearms and a pipe
bomb in the U-Haul van they drove to the Jersey City Jewish market before opening
fire, officials said.
Two of the weapons used by David Anderson, 47, and Francine Graham, 50, were bought by Graham in Ohio last year,
police said.
