Police Officer’s Gun Found In Public Restroom

By admin | February 27, 2009

Pennsylvania State Police are investigating whether any laws were violated when a city police officer’s gun was found in a public restroom. Montoursville Police Chief Dan Strailey said Thursday that the gun was found Feb. 10 in the women’s room of a department store in his borough. He says a customer alerted store management, who in turn called police. Strailey says the gun belonged to a patrolman in the Williamsport police, who reportedly lent it to a female acquaintance who had a permit to carry a gun. Since the Williamsport officer has a brother who works for the borough of Montoursville, the investigation was turned over to state police.

The state trooper assigned to the case says the investigation is continuing.
