A federal trial for a man accused of taking a police officer’s handgun ended in a hung jury this week.
What was this, another "takeaway" incident?
Authorities said the officer inadvertently left his duty belt under a street bench near Matt Talbot Kitchen at 19th and R streets the evening of Oct. 7. The belt included a police radio, a .45-caliber semiautomatic handgun and .45-caliber magazines. Police got a phone call a few hours later from someone who said Livings had a police officer’s weapon. Authorities found him the next morning with the gun and magazines at an apartment near 23rd and Q streets.
"Inadvertantly."
So the homeless guy is "The Only One" who faced charges? And the only one the "Authorized Journalists" chose to name?
