Watch: Wake County sheriff faces new lawsuit over speed of gun permits

RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — Another lawsuit has been filed against Wake County and Sheriff Gerald Baker over gun permits. 

Grass Roots North Carolina, a gun rights group, said Wake County and Baker are breaking the law by not issuing gun permits within 14 days. 

“Sheriff Baker knows the state specified 14 days for processing those permits and now it’s routinely taking two months,” said Marc Erickson with Grass Roots North Carolina.
