TEMPLE, Texas (KWTX) - A two-month investigation into an illegal machine gun conversion device ended Wednesday with three suspected gang members in custody following a foot pursuit in Temple, authorities announced.

The investigation began July 12 when Cedar Park Police officers pursued a vehicle through Cedar Park.

During that chase, a passenger discarded a Glock handgun outfitted with a machine gun conversion device-commonly referred to as a "Glock switch"-before jumping out and fleeing into Brushy Creek.
