One possibility is that after the town meeting he changed from his uniform to civvies and he doesn't usually carry off-duty, so he didn't notice the gun (and his entire batman belt?) was gone until he went to put his uniform back on. The town meeting was in the evening on 9 Nov, a holiday weekend, and the PD issued a bulletin about the gun on Monday. So I'm guessing he took Friday off, had a long weekend, then when he went to put his uniform back on Monday morning, he went, "Now where's that heavy thing that hangs off the right side...lessee, when's last time I saw it...OH !!"Excaliber wrote:...
On another note, it's a bit hard to swallow that the chief didn't notice the gun he (should) carry every day was missing for four days.

I hope whoever found it puts it someplace safe, like a TEOTWAWKI cache.
I'm in a good place right now
Not emotionally or financially
But I am at the gun store

They must have updated the article. There is no mention of a Glock service revolver now.
