PEORIA, Ill. – A Peoria man is behind bars after a so-called “ghost gun” was allegedly found in his possession.

Peoria Police say investigators Thursday night saw Brian Keller, 19, leave a North Braves Court residence in a car and pulled it over.

Keller — who was wanted on charges in two separate cases including Aggravated Assault with a Firearm, Possession of a Handgun Under the Age of 21, and Aggravated Discharge of a Firearm — allegedly had the ghost gun inside the vehicle, based on a search.

Keller now faces more charges, including Aggravated Unlawful Use of a Weapon and Possession of a Firearm Without a Valid FOID Card.

Keller remains in the Peoria County Jail pending dates in court.
