Uzi does it

NUEVO LAREDO, Mexico — A Texas man was arrested when police found him carrying a submachine gun under his arm while he walked along a street in this border city, Nuevo Laredo police said Friday.
Steven Newman Ryan,
30, of Houston, tried to toss the Uzi and run when he spotted police before his arrest Thursday, police said in a news release.
Ryan faces charges of violating Mexico’s federal weapons law that sharply restricts possession of guns.
Police said Ryan had refused to say why he was carrying the gun.
Any guesses on this one?
I’d want to know how Steven Newman Ryan got across the border carrying an Uzi, but the more interesting question is why.
Is he:
b. an incompetent gun-runner?
c. Another Jordan Davidson (and what’s happened to that boy anyway?)?
d. A tourist who takes State Department Warnings way, way, too seriously?
e. A brain-addled Lou Dobbs-aholic?
f. El chingagrino’s” future girlfriend at el Centro de readapcion social?
