Woman arrested for being victim of gun theft

Imagine you find out that your home or car has been burglarized for just a moment. For some of us, it’s really just pulling up past experiences rather than an act of imagination.

Regardless, picture yourself in that situation. You call the police to report the theft. Next thing you know, you’re in handcuffs. That doesn’t make a lot of sense, now does it? Except, it can actually happen. In fact, it did to one woman recently.

A local woman with a valid pistol permit who reported a gun stolen from her car ended up getting arrested and charged with two counts of storing or keeping a pistol in an unattended motor vehicle, according to police.
