NEW HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) -- Two men were arrested Tuesday after they were found walking in New Haven with loaded handguns in their pants.

Police received a tip that a man was in possession of a handgun, walking in the Church Street South Housing Complex.

When officers responded they spotted 20-year-old Christopher Calhoun, who matched the description they'd been given of the man with the gun.

Calhoun was walking with three other men.

Police could see an extended gun magazine in the rear of Calhoun's pants. They then proceeded to stop Calhoun and the other men he was walking with.

A loaded "Glock" 19" 9mm handgun was recovered from Calhoun's waistband.

A loaded .22 caliber revolver was also discovered, tucked into 18-year-old Maurice Eure's waistband.

Both Calhoun and Eure were arrested and charged with gun crimes.
