Bad Cop: Montgomery Co. Police Investigating Theft of Rifle, Police Equipment From Unmarked Police Vehicle [Video]
Montgomery County Police are investigating a theft of a rifle and police equipment stolen from an unmarked police vehicle.
Stolen from the vehicle were a Colt M-4 Rifle, two loaded M-4 magazines, two sets of handcuffs, two Montgomery County Police badges, an ASP baton, and two loaded .40 caliber Glock magazines.
Quote from the article:
“The concern is we need to get that equipment back, certainly if the rifle is now in the hands of someone that’s not supposed to [have it],” said Melanie Brenner of Montgomery County Police. “It’s unfortunate it happened. Everyone makes mistakes.”
Police say this was clearly against policy for officers to leave weapons and ammunition in their vehicles.
