WASHINGTON — The nation's Homeland Security officers lost nearly 200 guns in bowling alleys, public restrooms, unlocked cars and other unsecure areas, with some ending up in the hands of felons. The problem, outlined in a new federal report, has prompted disciplinary actions and extra training.
Most of the misplaced weapons — including handguns, shotguns and military rifles — were never found. "Most losses occurred because officers did not properly secure firearms," says the Homeland Security inspector general report.
WHERE GUNS WERE LOST
Spots where Homeland Security workers lost guns from 2006 through 2008:
A fast-food restaurant bathroom
A car idling in a convenience-store lot
A bowling alley
A toolbox in a truck bed
On a car bumper
"The department is strongly committed to ensuring that weapons ... are kept secure," :whatever:
