ROSWELL, N.M. (AP) — A southeastern New Mexico city is weighing whether to allow its employees to carry concealed weapons at work.
KOB-TV in Albuquerque reports the Roswell City Council is scheduled next week to vote on a concealed weapons measure. Supporters say the new option will keep employees safe.
Under the proposal, Roswell employees who complete requirements to obtain a concealed carry license will have the option to carry a gun.
Nearby Eddy and Otero counties already allow their employees to carry a concealed weapon while on the job.
