UCSB Student Allegedly Fires Weapon And Gets Arrested

(AP) A UC Santa Barbara student is behind bars after allegedly firing a gun and having a mini-arsenal in his apartment. 

Investigators say 21-year-old Kevin Tym had been playing with his 9-millimeter Glock when it went off Tuesday, sending a bullet through his neighbor's wall. Authorities found seven firearms, roughly a thousand rounds of ammunition and high capacity assault rifle magazines during a search of his apartment. 

Tym's arrest comes in the wake of last Friday's Isla Vista massacre, in which 22-year-old Elliot Rodger went on a stabbing and shooting rampage that killed six people, and hurt 13 before turning a gun on himself.
