Recently, weekend police officers responded to the 1800 block of Newport Boulevard regarding a call of a large group of individuals, one possibly with a handgun, fighting near a bar, according to the Costa Mesa Police Department.
The officers arrived in the area and saw a suspect fleeing the area in a rideshare and detained him.
Another suspect was found nearby.
A search of the area resulted in the seizure of a loaded “ghost” gun, an unserialized and untraceable firearm, and almost an ounce of methamphetamine.
Both men were arrested.
