Colorado lawmakers have passed a bill requiring gun owners to call police within five days of noticing a firearm has been lost or stolen.
If they do not, they would face a $25 fine.
Bill sponsor Leslie Herod, D-Denver, says the goal of the new law is to help police locate stolen firearms before they can be used to commit other crimes.
“The consequences in this bill are minimal, but we hope it will educate and change behaviors,” she said.
