In late-2019 the Little Rock Police Department finished a trial of body-worn cameras. One of the participating officers was Officer Cole Reppond, who is behind the camera in this footage of a traffic stop... that turned up a .25 caliber pistol in the center console of the stopped vehicle. It had a filed-off serial number. Watch as the subject beats the odds, and somehow manages to walk away from the stop a free man. Note: the Gun Control Act of 1968 requires that all newly manufactured firearms produced by licensed manufacturers in the United States or imported into the United States bear a number. That number is a "serial number," not a "VIN number." ~~~ Follow us on Twitter @realworldpolice ~~~ Check out the recent public Patreon post about access to public records, at http://tiny.cc/publicrecords ~~~ Do you have independently verifiable inside information on a story we are or should be covering?
