In a recent incident in Ann Arbor, two teenagers were taken into custody after a 3D-printed gun was discovered in their vehicle during a traffic stop. Conducted by night shift officers, the stop occurred in the 600 block of North Maple Road and led to the uncovering of a firearm lacking a serial number, as reported by CBS News Detroit.
