    Default "Balto. police recover 29 stolen firearms early Tuesday"

    Baltimore police have two men in custody after seizing 29 stolen handguns Tuesday morning.

    Around 2:30 a.m. Monday, two men allegedly broke into an outdoor supply store in Saxton, Pa., using a vehicle and stole multiple handguns. They then drove to Baltimore with the intention of selling the guns, police said.

    Law enforcement with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives alerted Baltimore police that the vehicle might be in the city. Police located the vehicle in the western patrol district around 4 a.m. Tuesday.

    It will certainly be interesting to see what happens to these two from Pennsylvania. This might be a good case to test the "enforcement of current laws" resolve of those authorities who tend to ignore the more likely sources of illegal guns.

    Hopefully they get the max from the FEDS. I bet the the store gets hammered also just for being broke into.

    Good job, Baltimore Police! According to the article they were tipped off about these knuckle heads. At 4 am the police are going to be taking a second look at most cars.

    The article didn't identify the race of these criminals but if the are white they wouldn't do too well in Baltimore. The City Police takes its racial profiling very seriously and white drivers that enter a mostly black neighborhood will get stopped.

    Garrett Sherlock is white and has a significant criminal history for an out of state thug.

    They sure threw a lot of nolle at him. That will learn.

    Looks like a good example of great police work.

    What "authorities" ignore stolen guns as a source of illegal guns?

    Stealing guns after breaking into a sporting goods/outdoor supply store is already illegal, no need to pass any new laws, just enforce the ones that are already there.

    Throw the book at them, mandatory sentences, use Federal law as they crossed state lines.

    Maybe these guys should have been in jail for all of their previous crimes instead of on the street hustling.

    I hope so too and I do not doubt that about the store being blamed somehow either.

    A young white guy riding around mostly black neighborhoods in Baltimore would stand out like a sore thumb. Even people in the neighborhood know they don't belong.

    This fool should have just driven around with a flashing neon sign on his vehicle the reads "CRIMINAL."

    These two thugs need to spend the rest of their lives in jail. Great police work, but it's worthless if all these clowns get is a slap on the wrist.

    All in favor of banning Pennsylvania... Raise your hand.

    You're talking about Baltimore City. About the best you can hope for is a stern warning.

    HOWEVER, they can be charged with the B&E in PA. Since PA's politicians' actually resent crime and will fight it, you can bet they will go away for a long time up there.
