MyFox News in Memphis reported that several police issued shotguns have gone away in Gallaway, Tenn. The news site noted that the City of Gallaway if offering a $500 reward for information on the guns. The crime seems particularly brazen:
”Saturday between 12:00 pm and 7:00 pm, someone threw a brick through a window of the unoccupied police department. The burglar unlocked a door through the broken window and kicked in another door. After gaining entry to the building, the suspect stole several Remington 12-gauge shotguns and a taser gun.”
What makes this noteworthy again is that it shows to what lengths criminals will go to get guns. This wasn’t a straw purchase or anything done through a gun show loophole. This was a clear cut issue of criminals stealing guns, and now being armed.
