Different Newspaper Emphasis

Compare, if you will, these two very short stories. Not for the meager content but for the slant.

Traffic stop leads to recovery of handgun, heroin
is from New York.

and

Arrest made in theft of copper wire, handgun is from Indiana.

One story emphasizes the handgun, to the point of counting how many rounds were in the magazine for the unloaded .22 pistol. The other story headlines the gun as less important than copper wire.

Am I missing something or are New York papers just plain nuts?
