One more story - Discovery of gun in Chicago could help crack unsolved Huron County homicide

The latest police agency to help is the Chicago Police Department, which confiscated a gun from a person there that was deemed a possible match to one of the Bailey murder weapons.

"We are awful lucky that they checked that gun for the ballistics," Hanson says.

The gun turned out to be a match and Hanson says the last registered owner of that firearm lives in Huron County and has been questioned, telling investigators the gun was sold, but the person couldn't remember who it was sold to.

"We are not convinced the last known registered owner is telling us everything," he says.

The discovery of the gun has led to more search warrants and Hanson believes this gets his agency closer to an arrest and reminds everyone that there is reward money available for information.
