Police and federal agents, acting on a tip, have arrested one person on weapons charges after confiscating more than 1,000 guns Wednesday from a home in the posh Bel Air section of Los Angeles, according to authorities.

Photos and video from the scene showed stacks of rifles, handguns and shotguns spread out in the driveway of the home not far from the Playboy Mansion. Others showed a table stacked with boxes of ammunition.

“I had never seen so many weapons in my career of 31 years,” police Lt. Chris Ramirez said. “That’s such a big arsenal in a residence like this, in this type of neighborhood. It’s astounding.”

Girard Saenz, 57, of Los Angeles, was arrested on suspicion of distributing, transporting, importing, selling, or lending an assault weapon, according to the Los Angeles Police Department, KTLA reported.

The federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said its agents searched the home after receiving a tip of a person "conducting illegal firearms transaction outside the scope of the federal firearm license" that the individual possessed.

Bel Air, a hilly neighborhood on the west side of Los Angeles, is a regular stop for tourists gawking at the multi-million dollar homes of such celebrities as Jay-Z and Beyoncé.

The 8,200-square foot, five-bedroom home where the weapons were confiscated is valued at more than $7 million, KTLA reports, citing public property records and the real estate website Redfin.com.

According to the Los Angeles Times, the property is owned by Cynthia Beck, who has three children with J. Paul Getty’s son Gordon Getty. Beck bought the property 18 years ago, but it is unclear what connection, she might have, if any, with the events Wednesday.

Beck could not be reached for comment, the Times said.
