So much for "effective" vehicle security.

Ct Encon Officer likely..........parked at home with gun in the car......

AR-15???
Not a cop's M-16???

I suspect it had the happy switch, making the thief very happy, indeed.
It might have made it to NYC already. Big bucks..not the deer kind.

"An AR-15 rifle was stolen from a Department of Energy and Environmental Protection vehicle"
What's wrong with that? To me it sounds like a state version of the EPA, if so what the hell did he have an AR? Never mind the obvious question of why the hell did he leave it in the car and parked on the street? CT is very strict on gun ownership, wonder if anything will happen to him.

And why does such an agency need a weapon of war? They are not the military. A pump action shotgun or pistol with 10 round magazines should be quite sufficient. After all it’s all citizen in that state needs for their self defense.

If someone is hurt/killed with this gun then then they or their family gets to sue the department and the manufacturer right? That's how the left wants it for civilian owned guns. Plus the officer should face a safe storage violation too.

According to Wallingford police, it happened on Wednesday, July 26.

An officer on a routine patrol noticed around 6:25 a.m. that the DEEP vehicle, which was parked in front of a home, had one of its passenger side windows smashed out.

so the owner didn't report the gun stolen ..



“After investigation, officers determined that the vehicle contained an AR-15 rifle in a secured and locked police mount,” said Sgt. Stephen Jaques, Wallingford police. “The entire mount and rifle had been stolen from the vehicle along with ammunition.”

where was the ammo ? in another locked box they took .. LOL ..


so if a citizen has a gun safe at home or in there car up to and including the glove box .. and some one steel the fucking things in your home or auto ..

your not at fault then .. just like the po po ..

Why does a DEEP need need am AR15 in the first place? Bureaucrats don't need to be armed.
