Interesting story of a stolen LEO's Glock

#1

Post by johncanfield »

The Orlando Sentinel published a very interesting story tracing the path of a stolen .40 caliber Glock and ultimately recovering same. I found the article to be neutral in tone and not the typical MSM gun-bashing.

Was the writer trying to make a point?
Bad guy steals gun, uses it for bad things.

I looked for it, but I couldn't find the "neutal" tone, the gun did all these things, not the persons behind the trigger. Intersting story though.

No lesson for me, I just thought it was interesting to document the route a stolen handgun took. The lesson for the LEO was to not place his weapons in jeopardy of being stolen.
