Ruby's gun on Capitol grounds ends in police custody
A Colt Cobra revolver once owned by Jack Ruby sits in a Capitol Police evidence locker after Robert Luongo was arrested for carrying it onto the Capitol grounds. The gun, serial 2744 LW, sold for $220,000 at a New York auction by Ruby's brother Earl, who died in 1967. Luongo faced a misdemeanor charge and bond was posted.
