Chesapeake police will host a gun buyback on Dec. 6.
From 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at two police precincts, police will give a $100 gift card for each functioning handgun turned in, according to a statement from the department.
The goal of the program is to reduce violent crime by taking guns off the street, the department says.
The buyback program will be held at the Second Precinct, 1209 20th St. in South Norfolk, and at the Fourth Precinct, 4765 Stationhouse Road in Western Branch.
Handguns must be unloaded and stored in a clear container such as a clear storage bag.
Gift cards will not be given for rifles, shotguns or ammunition, but the items will be accepted. Ammunition must be in a separate container.
