Democratic Gov. Jared Polis of Colorado signed legislation on Monday adding new gun-theft reporting and gun-storage requirements to the state’s firearm regulations.

Polis put his signature on two bills sent to him by the Democratic-majority Legislature, one requiring gun owners to report the loss or theft of a firearm to law enforcement within five days of discovering it missing and the other requiring that firearms be “responsibly and securely stored” when not in use.
