Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday wouldn’t say whether his unprecedented statewide shelter-in-place order means gun stores in California have to close as non-essential businesses, instead leaving that decision to each of the state’s 58 counties.

“I believe in people’s right to bear arms but I’ll defer to the sheriff in this instance, the sheriffs in their respective jurisdictions,” said Newsom during a press conference.
