ATLANTA — A lobbyist who brought a handgun inside the Georgia Capitol likely did it by mistake, according to the Georgia State Patrol.

Troopers told Channel 2’s Jessica Jaglois they found the weapon during routine security screening.

The gun was detected by an X-ray machine when the lobbyist passed through a main entrance.

“Under Georgia law he was allowed to exit the building, secure the weapon and return to the Capitol.

No charges were filed.
