Man faces charges for guns in home BROOKLINE, Mass., June 13 (UPI) -- A Boston-area man has been charged with keeping 36 weapons in the home he formerly shared with his elderly father. Richard L. Becker, 55, of Brookline was arrested Monday, Boston.com reported. His arraignment was postponed until Thursday because he was hospitalized until Wednesday afternoon after falling down when police approached him. Police went to the house Monday because a relative was concerned about Becker and his 87-year-old father, Gerald. They discovered the elder Becker is now in an assisted living home and that his son had a stash of weapons in the home and a permit that expired in 1998. Brookline officials say Gerald Becker, who owns the house, has not paid property taxes for nine years. Finance Director Stephen Cirillo said the house, valued at about $1.2 million, could be seized Aug. 2 if back taxes adding up to $160,000 have not been paid.
