Man Caught With Stolen Gun Following San Bruno Hold-Up: Cops

SAN BRUNO, CA — A San Francisco man was arrested outside a Peninsula mall this week, after police say he was found with a loaded, concealed and stolen gun. Isaiah Lim, 26, was booked into jail Tuesday night on charges related to the possession of a stolen firearm, police said Thursday.

Lim was caught after police responded to the Tanforan Mall after someone reported being robbed, according to San Bruno Police Lt. Ryan Johansen.

"The ensuing investigation revealed the suspect, described as a black make adult, 20-24 years old, had robbed the victim with a semi-automatic firearm," Johansen said. "The suspect fled the area with the firearm and is yet to be located or identified."

Though police didn't find that suspect, they came across Lim during their search, officials said.

"During the course of the investigation, twenty-six year old San Francisco resident Isaiah Lim was contacted at the scene," Johansen said. "A loaded semi-automatic handgun was found to be in Lim’s possession."

Police ran a check on the weapon, which had been reported stolen from another city, according to the lieutenant.
